Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −4x − 12y = −48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

4x + y = 4 (1)

2x + 6y = 24 (2)

Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −4x − 12y = −48.

4x + y = 4 (1)

−4x − 12y = −48 (3)

Variable x can be eliminated by adding the equations

4x + (-4x) + y + (-12y) = 4 + (-48)

4x - 4x + y - 12y = 4 - 48

0 - 11y = -44

-11y = -44

Divide both sides by -11

y = -44/-11

= 4

Is - 4 the absolute value of 3 - 7? Explain.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the definition of absolute value is the number of units or points from zero on a number line. The regular answer of 3-7 would be -4. But the absolute value of -4 is 4 because it is just regularly 4 digits away from zero on a number line. Make sense?

Given square NOWR, what is the value of x and y?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

x = 4, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles in a square are right, that is 90°

The diagonals bisect the angles , then

6x + 21 = 45 ( subtract 21 from both sides )

6x = 24 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 4

------------------------------------------------

The sides of a square are congruent , then

10y - 29 = 5y + 16 ( subtract 5y from both sides )

5y - 29 = 16 ( add 29 to both sides )

5y = 45 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 9

lions [1.4K]

In the question it is given that,

The students at Midtown Middle school sold flowers as a fundraiser in September and October. In October, they charged $1.50 for each flower

And the October price was a 20% increase of the September price.

Let the price of the flower in October be $x

So we have

x+  \frac{20}{100}x = 1.50 \\ \frac{120x}{100} = 1.50 \\ x = \frac{1.50*100}{120} = 1.25

So the price of the flower in Septembet is $1.25 .
