-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20
multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.
(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20
Now we have:
-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14
Divide -2 on both sides.
-2x = -14
/-2 /-2
x = -7.
=============================================
To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20
4x + 2y = 20
4(-7) + 2y = 20
-28 + 2y = 20
Add 28 on both sides
-28 + 2y = 20
+28 +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2 /2
y = 24.
The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.
You may have to do this by yourself :P

We can find the diameter by dividing the circumference by 3.14
d = 22
Thus, our radius is 11.
r = 11
Now, let's use the area formula (

) to solve for the area.
a =
Answer:
See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:
1. Make sure that the trinomial is written in the correct order - the trinomial must be written in descending order from highest power to lowest power. In you case, the trinomial must be written as

2. Decide if the three terms have anything in common, called the greatest common factor or GCF. If so, factor out the GCF. Do not forget to include the GCF as part of your final answer.
In your case, coefficients 2, 5 and 3 do not have common factors, so go to the next step.
3. Multiply the leading coefficient and the constant, that is multiply the first and last numbers together:

4. List all of the factors from step 3 and decide which combination of numbers will combine to get the number next to x:

5. After choosing the correct pair of numbers, you must give each number a sign so that when they are combined they will equal the number next to x and also multiply to equal the number found in Step 3:

6. Rewrite the original problem with four terms by splitting the middle term into the two numbers chosen in step 5:

7. Now that the problem is written with four terms, you can factor by grouping:

The answer is going to be A.
Shadow 1 / Height 1 = Shadow 2 / Height 2
Answer:
The greater percent of cell phone ownership in Japan than the U.S was <u>13.7%</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
About 543 out of every 1,000 people in United States owned a cell phone in 2003.
In japan,the are was 68 for every 100 people.
Now, to find the greater percent of cell phone ownership in Japan than the U.S.
So, to get the percent of people owned cell phone in United States:



Now, to get the percent of people owned cell phone in Japan:

So, to get the percent greater of cell phone ownership in Japan than the U.S we subtract the percent of people owned cell phone in United States from the percent of people owned cell phone in Japan:

Therefore, the greater percent of cell phone ownership in Japan than the U.S was 13.7%.
