Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the first for a, then substitute into the second.
a = 27/(5b^2)
Then ...
(27/(5b^2))^2·b = 135
27^2/(5^2·135) = b^3 = 27/125
b = ∛(27/125) = 3/5
a = 27/(5(3/5)^2) = 15
__
The expression of interest is ...
a +5b = 15 + 5(3/5) = 15 +3
a +5b = 18
He lost 8 pounds i think i am almost positive that right.
Answer:
x=-1
y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x + 5y =1 ......equation (1)
6x + 4y = –10 ......equation (2)
adding equation (1) to equation (2)
9y=-9
9y/9 =-9/9 (dividing both side by the coefficient of y)
y=-1
subtituting the value of y =-1 into equation (2)
6x+4(-1)=-10
6x+(-4)=-10
6x-4=-10
6x=-10+4(making constant to be at one side and the variable at the other side)
6x=-6
x=-6/6
x=-1
y = mx , where m is a slope,
m= rise/run
We have y = 15x, so m =15 and rise/run =15, then
rise = 15, run = 1
