Orlov [11]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>x = -7</em>

<em>y = 47</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equation

y = −8x − 9 ... 1

y = −6x + 5 ...2

Equating both expressions

-8x - 9 = -6x + 5

Collect like terms

-8x + 6x = 5 + 9

-2x = 14

x = 14/-2

x = -7

Substitute x = -7 into equation 1.

From 1: y = −8x − 9

y = -8(-7) - 9

y = 56 - 9

y = 47

<em>Hence the solution to the system of equations (x, y) is (-7, 47)</em>

Elis [28]

Answer:

18 gallons of paint could paint 10 classrooms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the school bought 18 gallons of paint, and that each classroom requires 1 4/5 of paint to be painted, to determine how many classrooms can be painted with that amount of paint, the following calculation must be performed:

4/5 = 0.8

1 + 0.8 = 1.8

18 / 1.8 = 10

Therefore, 18 gallons of paint could paint 10 classrooms.
