An ordered pair (x,y) is a solution to a system of equations if it makes all the equations true.
Let's check whether (–1, 5) makes the equations true.
Plugging –1 in the first equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 + 5 = 4: TRUE
Plugging –1 in the second equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 – 5 = –6: TRUE
Since it makes both the equations true, it's a solution to the system of equations. So the answer choice is D, the 4th one.

Answer:
58
Step-by-step explanation:
There would be 58 nickels and 42 dimes. This can be found out by
1. 100 - 16 = 84
2. 84/2 = 42
3. 42 + 16 = 58
making 42 dimes and 58 nickels.
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>First, use the equation for geometric mean; an=a1r^n-1</em>
*where is an is the number at an n term, r is the ratio and a1 is the first number of the sequence.*
12 = a1 r^5
27 = a1r^7
From the equations above,
a1 = 128/81
r = 3/2
Therefore, the 7th term is:
an = (128/81) (3/2)^6
an = 18
hope this helps :)
