you divide 8/4 and get 2. 2 plus 7 is 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Original 873 New 781
The new went down by about 10.5%
873*10.5%= 91.67
873-91.67= 781.33
It decreased 10.5%
Answer:
8 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
use a proportion of 2/5 = x/20.
x will equal 8
Make the coefficient of y the same in both equations:
To do this, multiply equation one by 2, and equation two by 5 (this will make the coefficient 10 in both).
14x + 10y = 38
-35x - 10y = -80
Eliminate the y variable by adding the equations from each other
(14x + 10y = 38)
+ (-35x - 10y = -80)
= -21x + 0y = -42
We now have -21x = -42. The y variable has been eliminated.
Solve for x
-21x = -42
Divide both sides by -21 to get x on its own.
x = 2
Substitute x into the equation to find y.
7*2+5y=19
14+5y=19
Subtract 14 from both sides.
5y=19-14
5y=5
Divide by 5 on both sides to get y on its own.
y=5/5
y=1
The answer is (2,1)
