Answer:

3x=-y+12

2x+3y=-6

collecting the like terms we have

3x+y=12

2x+3y=-6

to solve this simultaneous equation, we use substitution method

we make y the subject in equation one:

y=12-3x

then we put y=12-3x into 2x-3y=-6 in equation two

2x+3(12-3x)=-6

2x+36-9x=-6

-7x+36=-6

-7x=-6-36

-7x=-42

x=-42÷-7

x=6

then we put x=6 in y=12-3x:

y=12-3x

y=12-3(6)

y=12-18

y=-6

Answer: The answer is 1 1/9.

Explanation: Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator(5/6 x 4/3). Cancel the common factor of 2, then multiply 5/3 x 2/3. The result is 10/9, which is an improper fraction which should be converted to the mixed fraction 1 1/9.

What is the area of the real backyard?

prohojiy [21]

50 meters, because if 4cm is 5 m, then it would be 5( 4cm, which equals 5m) multiplied by 10( 8cm÷4cm= 2. 2×5m= 10). So 5m × 10m = 50m. Hope this helps!
