Answer:

  6 : 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the ratio values is 3×2 = 6. This means the two numbers will have a GCF of 12/6 = 2. So, the two numbers are ...

  3×2 : 2×2 = 6 : 4

_____

I think of GCF and LCM problems in terms of a "diagram" that looks like this:

  (a [ b ) c ]

That is, the two numbers can be written in a form such that one is (a·b), the other is [b·c], their greatest common factor is b, and their least common multiple is a·b·c.

The ratio of the two numbers would be a : c. The product ac differs from the LCM by a factor of b, the GCF. Of course, b = abc/(ac), which is how we got the above answer.

Use substitution to solve the system of equations.
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

C (let me know if I am wrong!)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation.

If 5x+y = -24, then -24 - 5x = y.

x+ 3(-24-5x) = -2

= -14x-72=-2

= -14x-72+72=-2+72

= -14x=70

= -5

If x = -5, then -5 + 3y = -2.

3y = -2+5

3y = 3

y=1

So the answer is C.
