Answer:
(x, y) = (1/2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We observe that the y-terms have coefficients 7 and -14. If we want to eliminate the y-terms, we need to multiply 7 by a factor that makes it be the opposite of -14. That factor will be -(-14)/7 = 2.
After multiplying the first equation by 2, we have ...
- 16x +14y = 78
- 4x -14y = -68
Adding these two equations gives ...
20x = 10
Solving for x, we need to divide by 20:
x = 10/20 = 1/2
Substituting this into the first equation, we get ...
8(1/2) +7y = 39
7y = 35 . . . . . . subtract 4
y = 35/7 = 5 . . . divide by 7
Then the solution is (x, y) = (1/2, 5).
_____
<em>Check</em>
We used the first equation to find y, so we know the x- and y-values satisfy the first equation. We need to check the result using the second equation.
4(1/2) -14(5) = -68
2 -70 = -68 . . . . . . . true; result checks OK
Yes if its 10%,20%,30%,40%,50%,60%,70%,80%,90%,100%,but if its like 21%,29%,68%,74%,probably if your doing math
the percent increase in the price of a gallon of milk from 1985 to 2005 is 59%
Define percent increase
Percent increase can be described as the rise in the value of an item, in this case the value is milk.
Write out the parameters
In 1985 the price of a gallon of milk is $2.20
In 2005 the price is $3.50
Formula for percent increase
new price-old price/new price × 100
Calculate the percent increase
new price= $3.50
old price= $2.20
= 3.50-2.20/2.20
= 1.3/2.20
= 0.59 × 100
= 59%
Hence the percent increase from 1985 t0 2005 is 59%

Step-by-step explanation:
100 + 5x = 10 + 20x
15x = 90
x=6
Answer:
x=65
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle the three inside angles added together always equal 180. So 73+51+21+x=180
51+21+x=107
21+x=86
x=65
