You stop at 2 decimal points. If the 3rd decimal is bigger than 5, add 1 to the 2nd and if it's less than 5, keep it as it is.
For example:
2.663 --> 2.66
6.788 --> 6.79
Answer: D) y= 14/17x - 4/17
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(x, y) = (8, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant equations are ...
3x -y = 22
x +2y = 12
__
We can eliminate y by adding twice the first equation to the second.
2(3x -y) +(x +2y) = 2(22) +(12)
7x = 56
x = 8
Substituting into the first equation gives ...
3(8) -y = 22
y = 24 -22 = 2
The first number is 8; the second number is 2.
