diamong [38]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations have -7y. You can eliminate them by subtracting one equation from the other:

Multiply equation 1 by -1, then add it to equation 2:

-2x + 7y = 74

3x - 7y = -83

———————

x = -9

2x - 7y = -74

2(-9) - 7y = -74

-7y = -56

Y = 8

(x,y) = (-9, 8)

In a list of numbers, the pattern increases by 0.001 as you move to the right. If the third number in the list is 0.064, what is
avanturin [10]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


The first number is 0.062.


Explanation:


Let x represent the first number in the list.


We add 0.001 to each number to find the next number; this gives us:

x + 0.001 + 0.001 = 0.064


Combining like terms, we have:

x + 0.002 = 0.064


Subtract 0.002 from each side:

x + 0.002 - 0.002 = 0.064 - 0.002

x = 0.062
