Step 1: multiple the second equation by 2 so that you get -1/4 for the coefficient of y, the same as in equation 1
equation 2 multiply by 2: 1/4 x - 1/4 y=38 ..........name this equation 3
subtract equation 1 from equation 3: (1/4 x -1/2 x)=38-10
-1/4 x = 28
x=-112
plug in x=-112 in any of the equation, you will get y=-264
so the answer is A
Answer:
-55
Step-by-step explanation:
the sqeuence seems to be subtracting by 2 everytime.
so it will be -1,-3,-5,-7,-9,-11,-13,-15,-17,-19,-21,-23,-25,-27,-29..
the answer will be 27*-2(-54) -1(because we start at -1 , not 0)
Given conditions are :
In 1980's, a typical middle-income household earned= $34,757
In 2009, a similar middle-income household earned= $38,550
And we have to find relative increase in income for these households from 1980 to 2009.
So first we will find the total increase in amounts.

Relative increase = 
= 10.91% or rounding it off we get approx 11%.
Hence, the answer is 11%.
Answer: 37
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Significance level : 
Critical value : 
margin of error : E= 1 mile per gallon
Population standard deviation:
miles per gallon.
We know that when the population standard deviation is known then the formula to find the sample size is given by :

[Round to the next whole number.]
Hence, the required number of automobiles should be used in the test = 37
Answer:
2 is -1/3
3 is -6
4 is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 is 7x + 8x = 3x - 4
3 is 5x + (-3) = 2x + (-15)
4 is -4x + 17 = 6x -3
