8y = 4x -16
-x = -2y -4
Multiply all terms in the second equation by -1:
-x = -2y -4 x -1 = x = 2y +4
Now replace x in the first equation with this.
8y = 4(2y+4)
Simplify:
8y = 8y +16
Because there is an 8y on both sides of the equation, it cannot be solved.
The answer is no solution.
Since both the expressions in x are equal to y then they are equal to each other, so
-2x + 3 = 13x - 4
-15x + 3 = -4
-15x = -7
x = 7/15
and y = -2(7/15) + 3 = 31/15 = 2 1/15
The probability of a student that earned an A on the test is 7/12.
To get a fraction like this, you put the number of students on the left, or the top and the number of students total on the right, or bottom. Then, you simplify your answer. This brings us to 7/12. You cannot simplify any further because the fraction includes a prime number.
I hope this helps!

Answer:168
Step-by-step explanation: First you do 82 times 3.75 which is 307.50. Then you do 2071.5 - 307.5 = 1764 Then you do 1764 divided by 10.50 which is 168
