2.5y + 3x = 27
5x - 2.5y = 5
Align the variables to make solving this easier.
2.5y + 3x = 27
-2.5y + 5x = 5
You can see that the 2.5y and -2.5y cancel each other out. Then add the 3x and 5x, and 27 + 5.
3x = 27
5x = 5
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 4
Now input that x into one of the equations to get y.
2.5y + 3(4) = 27
2.5y + 12 = 27
2.5y = 15
y = 6
The answer to this system of equations is x = 4, y = 6. (4, 6)
Answer:
6 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2 2/5 * 2 7/9
Change each number to an improper fraction
2 2/5 = (5*2+2)/5 = 12/5
2 7/9 = (9*2+7) = 25/9
12/5 * 25/9
Rewriting
25/5 * 12/9
5/1 * 4/3
20/3
Now changing to a mixed number
3 goes into 20 6 times with 2 left over
6 2/3

Answer:
tens-or 60
Step-by-step explanation:
the 1 is in the ones place the 6 is in the tens place and the 8 is in the hudreths place.
After I explain the procedure in full detail, you'll be able to generate
your own work. Here it is.
To find the greatest common factor of two numbers:
1). List all of the factors of the first number.
2). List all of the factors of the second number.
3). Scan both lists, and find factors that are on BOTH lists.
These are the COMMON factors. Write them down in a short list.
4). Scan the short list. Find the biggest number on it.
That's the Greatest Common Factor.
OK, I'll go through the first one in your picture . . . 24 and 42 :
1). Factors of 24: <em>1, 2, 3,</em> 4,<em> 6,</em> 8, 12, 24
2). Factors of 42: <em>1, 2, 3, 6,</em> 7, 14, 21, 42
3). Short list: <em>1, 2, 3, 6</em>
4). Biggest number on the short list:<em> <u>6</u> </em>
