Answer:

(A) -2, 3/7, 1/2, 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers are in increasing order when they are listed left-to-right as they appear on the number line.

The only numbers that may give you trouble are 3/7 = 6/14 and 1/2 = 7/14.

The negative number is less than any positive number. 1.2 is greater than any fraction that is less than 1.

The correct ordering is found in choice A.

Solve the system of equations algebraically. 4x - 3y = 6 6x - 5y = 6

muminat

Answer: x=6 y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle\\\left \{ {{4x-3y=6} \atop {6x-5y=6}} \right.\\$

Since the right parts of the equation are equal, therefore the left parts of the equation are also equal:

$4x-3y=6x-5y\\4x-3y+5y=6x-5y+5y\\4x+2y=6x\\4x+2y-4x=6x-4x\\2y=2x\\$

Divide both parts of the equation by 2:

$y=x\\Hence,\\4x-3x=6\\x=6\\Thus,\\x=y=6$

Separate the number 41 and the two parts so that the first number is eight more than twice the second number what are the two nu

vesna_86 [32]

The two numbers are 30 and 11

Solution:

Given that we have to separate the number 41 into two parts

Let the second number be "x"

Given that first number is eight more than twice the second number

first number = eight more than twice the second number

first number = 8 + twice the "x"

first number = 8 + 2x

So we can say first number added with second number ends up in 41

first number + second number = 41

8 + 2x + x = 41

8 + 3x = 41

3x = 41 - 8

3x = 33

x = 11

first number = 8 + 2x = 8 + 2(11) = 8 + 22 = 30

Thus the two numbers are 30 and 11
