Well just substitute y (the first equation) into the second equation.
So
5x-4(5-3x)=-3
Then just solve the equation from there.
5x-20+12x=-3
17x=17
x=1
and if you need y, y=2

Let 3.27<<5.89 represent an interval on the number line. Find the value that is in the middle of the interval.

laila [671]

Answer:

The middle value of the interval is 4.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided interval.

We need to find the value that is in the middle of the interval.

We can find the middle value of the interval by adding the upper and lower limit and divide the sum of the upper and lower limits by 2.

Here the upper limit is 3.27 and lower limit is 5.89.

$\frac{3.27+5.89}{2}=\frac{9.16}{2}=4.58$

Hence, the middle value of the interval is 4.58

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 4 to 7. If there were 5

Kipish [7]

4/7 = y/5019....with y being yes votes
cross multiply
(7)(y) = (4)(5019)
7y = 20076
y = 20076/7
y = 2868 <=== yes votes

total of yes and no votes : 5019 + 2868 = 7887
