1) Solve one of the equations for either variable.
2) Substitute the expression from Step 1 into the other equation.
3) Solve the resulting equation.
4) Substitute the solution in Step 3 into one of the original equations to find the other variable.
5) Write the solution as an ordered pair.
Answer:1 and 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C
The "inverse operation" is just a way of saying "what do you do to isolate the variable". In this case, we isolate y, so we have to move all terms to the right side. To do that, we subtract 12 from each side to there will only be "y" on the left side.
Answer:
26 2/3 minutes: The two boys meet after 26 2/3 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance covered by Jim = Distance covered by Bob
(5 mph)(t) = (8 mph)(t - 10)
Simplify this by performing the indicated multiplication:
(5 mph)(t) = (8 mph)(t) - 80 mi
or:
80 mi = (3 mph)(t), or
80 mi
t = ----------- = 26 2/3 minutes
3 mph
Answer: This coil will not be enough to complete the job.
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference of the coil of wiring can be calculated with:
Where r is the radius and 
The radius can be calculated by dividing the diameter by 2. Then:
Convert 9 inches to yards (1 yard=36 inches):
Substitute this radius into the formula:
Since there are 21 circles of wire, you need to multiply 
by 21:
The coil has 32.97 yards of wire and Alex needs 34 yards, therefore, this coil will not be enough to complete the job.
