The answer is Megan
following me on ig for tutoring
The answer is 140 percent
( 7, 10.5 )
<em>Solution:
</em><em />
y = 2x - 3.5
x - 2 y = -14
Plug the first equation into the second equation like so;
x - 2 ( 2x - 3.5 ) = -14
Distribute -2 to 2x and -3.5
Your equation should now look like this:
x - 4x + 7 = -14
You want common numbers to be in the same side so you subtract 7 from both sides
x - 4x + 7 - 7 = -7 - 14
Now simplify both sides
x - 4x = -3x
- 7 - 14 = -21
In order to solve for x you need to get x by itself, so you divide both sides by -3
-3x / -3 = x
-21 / -3 = 7
x = 7
In order to solve for y you need to plug x in
(You can plug it into either equation, but I'm plugging it into the first one)
y = 2 (7) - 3.5
y = 14 - 3.5
y = 10.5
Answer:
1.) 9
2.) 20
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) 39 is incorrect because they didn't follow the PEMDAS rule.
They subtracted 2 from 15 which is 13, and then they multiplied 13 by 3.
<u>The correct way is to multiply 2 times 3 which is 6, and then subtract 6 from 15 which is 9.</u>
<u />
2.) 12 is incorrect because they didn't use PEMDAS.
They added 8 to 16 which is 24, and then divided 24 by 2.
<u>The correct way is to divide 8 by 2 which is 4, and then add for to 16 which 20.</u>
<span>The moving of decimal to the left is a shortcut to the
operation of multiplying number by decimal numbers. So the power of 10 that is involved
in converting the measurements of pete is -4, so he needs to multiply the
measurement by 10^-4 to convert it.</span>
