The first step for solving this problem is to multiply both sides of the bottom equation by -3.
Add the two equations together.
6x - 9y - 6x + 9y = 16 - 21
Eliminate the opposites.
-9y + 9y = 16 - 21
Remember that the sum of two opposites equals 0,, so the equation becomes the following:
0 = 16 - 21
Calculate the difference on the right side of the equation.
0 = -5
This means that the statement
is false for any value of x and y. That means that the answer to your question is (x,y) ∈ ∅,, or no solution.

This is a common factor problem.
Pencils come in a pack of 12
Erasers come in a pack of 10
First, break the number into their prime factors(the idea is that we will break the number down into its smallest multiples, which are prime numbers):
10 = 2 * 5
12 = 2 * 2 *3
So now we take the unique multiples of each number, and when we multiply them together, we will get the smallest number that both 10 and 12 can be divided into(this is what the problem is asking for)
We have (2*2*3) that comes from 12, and the only unique number that comes from the 10 is (5)
So now, we multiply:
2*2*3*5=60
However, this isn't exactly out answer. Now we have to divide our answer by the number of each this in the pack to know how many packs to buy.
60/12=5 packs of pencils
60/10= 6 packs of erasers

Answer:
5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept of the line graph shown above is the value of the point where the line cuts the y-axis. The y-intercept of this graph is between 5 and 6. However, we can get an accurate value by calculation. This can be done by generating an equation of the line.
Recall the slope-intercept equation, 
, where m = slope of the line, b = y-intercept.
To generate the equation of the line, first find slope using the points (-2, 7) and (6, 1):
.
Substitute m = ¾ and the coordinates (6, 1) into the slope-intercept equation to find the y-intercept (b):
Therefore, b = y-intercept = 5.5.
To generate the equation of the line, plug in the values of m and b, we would have:
y = ¾x + 5.5
The y-intercept of the line of the graph is 5.5.
Since there are two halves in a whole, you can times each number by 2 to get the number of halves it has.
12*2=24
10*2=20
13*2=26
15*2=30
8*2=16
5*2=10
