Step-by-step explanation:
You can choose one of the prices above to find the proportion.

12x - 8y = -12
6x + 4y = -30
Multiply the 2nd equation by 2, to make the Y coefficients opposite:
6x + 4y = -30 x 2 = 12x + 8y = -60
Now add the two equations:
12x -8y = -12 + 12x +8y = -60
= 24x = -72
Divide bothe sides by 24 to solve for x:
x = -72/24
x = -3
Now replace x with -3 in the first equation to solve for y:
12(-3) - 8y = -12
-36 - 8y = -12
Add 36 to each side:
-8y = 24
Divide both sides by -8 to solve for y:
y = 24 / -8
y = -3
X = -3 and y = -3
(-3,-3)
Answer: 0.02
Step-by-step explanation: Divide 2 by 100
By counting grid squares, we see the library is 5 miles north and 6 miles east of Ashley's house. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can find the straight-line distance to be
.. d = √(5^2 +6^2)
.. = √(25 +36)
.. = √61 . . . . . miles
.. ≈ 7.81 . . . . miles
