To solve this system, we can use substitution.


x + 6y = 61

x = 61 - 6y


Now we substitute into the other equation.


4 (61 - 6y) - 5y = -17

244 - 24y - 5y = -17

244 -29y = -17

29y = 261

y = 9


Now we find x.


x + 6 (9) = 61

x + 54 = 61

x = 7


That means the solution to this system is (7, 9)

What is 0.7, 0.755, 5/8 from least to greatest?
Margarita [4]
I like to start by turning all my numbers into the same form.  You can go either way but I am going to turn the decimals into fractions.  so 0.7 is the same as 7/10.

0.755 is like 755/1000 which can be reduced to 151/200  (if you don't understand the convertions let me know i will explaine more.)

Next give all the fractions a common denominator. both 8 and 10 go into 200 so we can use that.  151/200 already has a denominator of 200 so that one is set.
for 7/10  well, 10 time 20 is 200 so multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 20 so you get 140/200
the last one is 5/8  8 times 25 is 200 so multiply both numbers by 25 to get 125/200  

the fractionos we have are 125/200  151/200 and 140/200.  Now because they all have the same denominator the one with the lowest numerator is the least number and the one with the highest number is the greatest number.

125/200  140/200  151/200  now just replace the original number with the order they are placed in.
125/200 was 5/8
140/200 was 0.7 
151/200 was 0.755
so the final answer is 
5/8, 0.7, 0.755

I need help can y'all help please
BartSMP [9]
Your domain is all positive numbers, and your range is all numbers. this is because no matter what you plug in for y, x will only ever get extremely close to 0, but never reach it or go below it, and if you put in large values of y x will get very big.

A biology class has a total of 35 students. The number of females is 11 less than the number of males. How many males and how ma
lord [1]

Answer:

23 males and 12 females

Step-by-step explanation:

x = # of females

y = # of males

x + y = 35

x + x + 11 = 35

2x + 11 =35    (SUBTRACT 11 FROM BOTH SIDES)

2x = 24          (DIVIDE BOTH SIDES BY 2)

x = 12 females

x + y =35

12 + y = 35     (SUBTRACT 12 FROM BOTH SIDES)

y = 23 males

23 males + 12 females = 35 students
