<span>Suppose 2x + y = 15 -----eq 1
. x + 3y = 20 -----eq 2.
Multiplying eq (1) by 1 and (2) by 2 and subtracting the result
We have: 2x + y = 15 and 2x +6y =40.If we subtract, we have y - 6y = 15 - 40.
So we have -5y = -25. y is 5. Substiting into eq (1), we have 2x + 5 = 15. 2x = 15-5 =10 Hence X =5.Hence option B is the correct option.</span>
Answer:
(b) Find the odds in favor of Lena winning a headset
Step-by-step explanation:
Boy record = 25 feet 8 inches
Girl record = 19 feet 19 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 25 feet 8 inches / 19 feet 19 inches
Change the feet into inches
1 feet = 12 inches
25 feet = 25* 12 = 300 inches + 8 inches = 308 inches
19 feet = 19 * 12= 228 inches + 19 inches = 247 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 308 inches / 247 inches
Boy record / Girl record = 1.246 inches
Boy record = 1.246 Girl record
So
it is 1.246 times greater than girls record.
