The first step is to name the equations to make the process of solving them easy.

6x+7y=-4....(1)\\5x-3y=-21....(2)

The second step is to multiply  each of the equations by the coefficient of the x term in the other equation. In this case, we will multiply equation  (1) by 5 to get equation (3) and then multiply equation (2) by 6 to get equation (4).

-30x-35y=20...(3)\\30x-18y=-126...(4).

The next step is to add equation equation(3) and  (4) together to get equation (5) as shown below;

-53y=-106....(5)\\=> y= 2.

The next step is to take the value of y and substitute it into any of the equations above.  For this solution, I pick equation (1). The work done to solve for x is shown below.;

6x+7y=-4\\=>6x+7(2)=-4\\=>6x=-18\\=>x=-3

The solution for this system of equations is (-3,2)

The Breyer twins split the cost of their purchase. They bought an aquarium for $28.00. They spent $14.00 on fish, and they spent
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

$24.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first add up all the costs:

28+14+7.5 = 49.5

Since they split it, let's divide that by 2:

\frac{49.5}{2} = 24.75

Thus, they both spent $24.75.

Which table describes a linear function that has a slope of 2?​
dexar [7]

Answer:

Table (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line passing through  two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is,

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From the table (1),

Two points lying on the graph are (2, 1) and (6, -1).

Slope of the line = \frac{1+1}{2-6} = -\frac{1}{2}

From the table (2),

Two points lying on the linear function are (0, 8) and (2, 4).

Slope of the line =  \frac{8-4}{0-2} = -2

From the table (3),

Two points are (-4, 4) and (-2, 5).

Slope of the line = \frac{5-4}{-2+4} = \frac{1}{2}

From table (4),

Two points lying on the function are (-2, 0) and (0, 4).

Slope of the line = \frac{4-0}{0+2}=2

Therefore, Table (4) represents a linear function with slope 2.
