Let's plug in (18,10) into each answer choice until we find the one that has it as a solution.
A) 2x - y = 26
2(18) - 10 = 26
36 - 10 = 26
26 = 26
Your answer is A.
I'll just do the rest to show that you the they are incorrect.
B) x + y = 18
18 + 10 = 18
28 ≠ 18
C) 2x - 2y = 36
2(18) - 2(10) = 36
36 - 20 = 36
16 ≠ 36
D) x - y = -28
18 - 10 = -28
8 ≠ -28
Your answer is A) 2x - y = 26.
NO. They are not.
We can prove this by turning those numbers into fractions:
16 / 14 = 1.1428 ; 64 / 60 = 1.0667
Or simply:
64 / 16 = 4
60 / 14 = 4.29
To get the equivalent of 16 to 14; we must multiply both numbers by 4.
16 * 4 = 64
14 * 4 = 56
The equivalent of 16 to 14 is 64 to 56.
It led to the beginning of the Renaissance.
