A. Because when you try to find something (per) you will divide
I hope this helps
2x + 5y = 26....multiply by 3
3x + 4y = 26...multiply by -2
------------------
6x + 15y = 78 (result of multiplying by 3)
-6x - 8y = - 52 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
7y = 26
y = 26/7 (or 3 5/7)
2x + 5y = 26
2x + 5(26/7) = 26
2x + 130/7 = 26
2x = 26 - 130/7
2x = 182/7 - 130/7
2x = 52/7
x = 52/7 * 1/2
x = 52/14 which reduces to 26/7 (or 1 5/7)
solution is : (26/7, 26/7)
A transversal line is the term for a line that intersects two parallel lines.
The answer is C. -1+-6=-7, not 7.
Answer: b = 1850 - 120w
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the number of weeks for which the books are purchased.
They are being purchased at a steady rate of 120 books per week. This means that the number of books purchased after w weeks would be 120w.
The total number of algebra textbooks that she had initially is 1850
If b represents the number of books left after w-weeks of sales, then the linear function that models the number of books left after w weeks would be
b = 1850 - 120w
