Mathematics

diamong [38]3 years ago

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)

For part a multiply the pound amount by 16. Your work would look something like this... (not actual answer) 10 pounds x 16= 160 ounces. So 10 pounds= 160 ounces!
For part B
0.15 gallons=1.2 pints
Example: .15 x 4= .6
.6 x 2= 1.2 pints
1.2 x 20 seconds= 24 pints!

PLEASE help. The problem is to find the indicated sum.​
alukav5142 [94]
The indicated sum is 350. The answer is 350 because the E or sigma is making you do (6j+2) ten times. Every time you do 6j+2 you start with j as 1 and add a 1 to j for every time you add. For example, [6(1)+2]+[6(2)+2]+[6(3)+2]...[6(10)+2].

Hope this helps.

Irina18 [472]

He can read 1\frac{7}{8} chapters of his history book in 1 hour.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Franco read 3/8 of a chapter of his history book in 1/5 of an hour.

Suppose, he can read x chapters of his book in 1 hour at this rate.

So, the equation according to the <u>ratio of 'the chapter to the time'</u> will be....

\frac{x}{1}= \frac{\frac{3}{8}}{\frac{1}{5}}\\ \\ \frac{x}{1}=\frac{3}{8}*\frac{5}{1}\\ \\ \frac{x}{1}=\frac{15}{8} \\ \\ x= \frac{15}{8}= 1\frac{7}{8}

So, he can read 1\frac{7}{8} chapters of his history book in 1 hour.
