Answer:
x = 4 and y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the elimination method:
4(-x + 5y=-4) --> -4x + 20y = -16.
Now we add -4x + 20y = 016 and 4x + 3y = 16. This gives us 23y = 0 or just y =0.
Now we can find x by plugging in y.
-4x + 0 = -16.
Divide by -4 on both sides -> x = 4.
If you want to double check you can plug your values into -4x + 20y = -16.
-4(4) +20(0) = -16.
the answer is 5 because if 1 cup of sugar per batch and she put in 5 cups of sugar that makes 5 batches
-12x = 12x
Start by moving all the terms with the variable you want to solve for on one side of the equation and the rest on the other side of the equation.
We will move 12x to the left side of the equation by subtracting 12x from both sides. Now your equation should look like:
-24x = 0
Isolate the variable x by dividing both sides by -24. Everything divided by 0 is equal to 0, so that means x will be equal to 0.
x = 0
Your answer is x = 0.
Answer:
x = 14.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar means that the figures are proportional to each other. Because of this, we can form a problem. 
(the short side lengths) = 
(the long side lengths). Now we can solve this by cross-multiplying. If we multiply 9 · 8 we get 72, and 5 · x is 5x. 72 = 5x. Now divide both sides by 5. 72 ÷ 5 = 14.4. Therefore, x should be equal to 14.4. Does this make sense?
Step-by-step explanation:
The die is rigged, so "not 3" is not a possibility. Ruling out those branches of the tree, there are 4 possible outcomes, one of which is the desired outcome. So the probability is 1/4.
A fair die has six sides that are equally likely, so the probability of rolling more than 2 is always 4/6. The outcome of the first roll does not effect the outcome of the second roll.
