Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

4x - 5y = 18 → (1)

3x - 2y = 10 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 3 and (2) by - 4, then adding will eliminate the x- term

12x - 15y = 54 → (3)

- 12x + 8y = - 40 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate x, that is

- 7y = 14 ( divide both sides by - 7 )

y = - 2

Substitute y = - 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

4x - 5(- 2) = 18

4x + 10 = 18 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

4x = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 2

solution is (2, - 2 ) → D

Jack broke apart 5x216 as (5x200)+(5x16) to multiply mentally. What strategy did Jack use?
Sveta_85 [38]

For this case we have the following multiplication:

5 * 216

We can rewrite this multiplication in the following way:

5 * (200 + 16)

From here, we apply the distributive property.

We have then:

(5 * 200) + (5 * 16)

Therefore, Jack's strategy is:

Write the number in an expanded form and then apply the distributive property.

Answer:

Jack's strategy is:

Write the number in an expanded form and then apply the distributive property.
