Answer:

0 ≠ 110

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by Addition/Elimination

12y = 17 − 9x and −4y − 3x = 31

Reorder 17 and −9x. 12y = −9x + 17

−4y − 3x = 31

Add 9x to both sides of the equation.

12y + 9x = 17

−4y − 3x = 31

Reorder the polynomial.

9x + 12y = 17

−4y − 3x = 31

Reorder the polynomial.

9x + 12y = 17

−3x − 4y = 31 9x + 12y = 17

Multiply each equation by the value that makes the coefficients of x opposite.

9x + 12y = 17

(3) ⋅ (−3x − 4y) = (3) (31)

Simplify (3) ⋅ (−3x − 4y).

Apply the distributive property.

9x + 12y = 17

3 (−3x) + 3 (−4y) = (3) (31)

Multiply −3 by 3. 9x + 12y = 17

−9x + 3 (−4y) = (3) (31)

Multiply −4 by 3. 9x + 12y = 17

−9x − 12y = (3) (31)

Multiply 3 by 31. 9x + 12y = 17

−9x − 12y = 93

Add the two equations together to eliminate x from the system.

9x+12y=17

+−9x−12y=93

0=110

Since 0 ≠ 110, there are no solutions. No solution

74 is a rational number but not a whole number. 74 is a whole number but not a rational number. 74 is a whole number and a ratio

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Option C: 74 is both a whole number and a rational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is defined as a number which can be written as a fraction of two integers, an integer, a whole number and a natural number. The integer could be positive or negative.

Examples include -1/4, 1/2, 12

So it's obvious that the given number of 74 is a rational number.

Now, a whole number is simply a non - negative integer.

An integer is a number that is not a fraction.

Thus, examples of whole numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4...

So 74 is clearly a whole number.

Therefore, we can conclude that 74 is both a whole number and a rational number.

The population, p, of a town after t years is represented using the equation p=10000(1.04)^-t Which of the following is an equiv

Lisa [10]

Answer:

p=10000(26/25)t

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering that the population, p, of a town after t years is represented using the equation p=10000(1.04)^-t

The equation is equivalent to p=10000(26/25)t, because;

26/25 = 1.04

Hence; p=10000(26/25)t =p=10000(1.04)^t

hoa [83]

Find what percent of $39.00 the sale price was.
=> 15/39*100=38.4%
now subtract from 100% to get the mark down percentage.
100-38.4=61.6
Final answer:
Marked down 61.6%
