Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I take it that this is some sort of ratio. Start by solving the brackets on the left.
Brackets: 1/3 - 1/10
Brackets: 10/30 - 3/30
Brackets: 7/30
Brackets^2: 49/900
Brackets^2 - 1/5: 49/900 - 180/900
Brackets^2 - 1/5: -131/900
(2/5)^2 = 4/25
The way this read, it should be
Which when you invert and multiply becomes
which finally becomes
It would last 13.5 weeks because you would make a proportion:
12/16 = x/18 and then cross multiply. You would get 216=16x, then you have to divide both sides by 16 to get x = 13.5
<span>This one is the correct answer----->Multiply the bottom equation by 2 thus eliminating the y variable when the equations are added together.
</span><span>X + 6y = 2 ....top
</span><span>4x - 3y = 10...bottom
if we multiply the bottom equation by 2 .......... => 8x - 6y = 20
if we add it to the top one..........>(8+1)x +(6-6)y = (20+2)
then we solve for x => x = 22/9
then with the top equation, we solve for y == > y = -2/27</span>
