Answer:

  (x, y) = (-6, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 7 and add that to the second.

  7(x +y) +(5x -7y) = 7(-1) +(79)

  12x = 72

  x = 6

  y = -1 -x = -1 -6 = -7

The solution is (x, y) = (6, -7).

Michelle's mother bought 7 large pizzas for her birthday party. Each large pizza is cut into eighths. if 5/8 of the total slices
nirvana33 [79]
So we know that there are 8 slices per large pizza (7), so a total of 56 slices
we would set up a proportion
5/8=x/56
8 times 7 gives you 56, and we would do that same thing to the 5 (multiply it by 7) to get 35?
so now we know that 35 out of 56 slices were eaten
56-35 is 21
so there are 21 slices left over

Pleaseeeeee hellopppppppp!!
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

A. 29

B. 11

C. 10

D. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 180 - 122 = 58

58 divided by 2 = 29

-

B. 180 - 37 = 143

x = 11

5 x 11 = 55

8 x 11 = 88

55 + 88 = 143 + 37 - 180

-

C. the small box in a triangle means right angle = 90

90 - 68 = 22

(2x - 2) we subtract before finding out what x is

22 - 2 = 20

2x = 20 divide by 2  = 10

x is equal to 10

-

D. to find the total, you must figure out what each equation is to add them up to make 180.

(8x + 3) + (2x + 9) + 4x = 180

add up the numbers with x and the numbers without them

14x + 12 = 180

subtract 180 - 12 = 168

168 divided by 14 = 12

x = 12

Hope this helped !!
