Answer:
The y-value is -20
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's solve this by Elimination method;
-2(4x + 5y = -12)
4(2x + 3y = -16)
Let's Distribute;
-8x - 10y = 24
8x + 12y = -64
So x cancels out because -8 + 8 = 0
-10y + 12y = 2y
24 - 64 = -40
2y = -40
Divide both sides by 2;
y = -20
Now lets plug in y to find the value of x;
4x + 5(-20) = -12
4x - 100 = -12
Add 100 to both sides;
4x = 88
Divide both sides by 4;
x = 22
Steps:
"Of" means "x" (times)
For 20% pretend there is an imaginary decimal at the end and move that decimal all the way to the front.
Now what is .20 of (times) $60 = 12

Answer:
Kevin mowed 4 lawns
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of lawns Kevin mowed be x.
12 = 3x
x = 4

When dealing with radicals and exponents, one must realize that fractional exponents deals directly with radicals. In that sense, sqrt(x) = x^1/2
Now, how to go about doing this:
In a fractional exponent, the numerator represents the actual exponent of the number. So, for x^2/3, the x is being squared.
For the denominator, that deals with the radical. The index, to be exact. The index describes what KIND of radical (or root) is being taken: square, cube, fourth, fifth, and so on. So, for our example x^2/3, x is squared, and that quantity is under a cube root (or a radical with a 3). Here are some more examples to help you understand a bit more:
x^6/5 = Fifth root of x^6
x^3/1 = x^3
^^^Exponential fractions still follow the same rules of simplifying, so...
x^2/4 = x^1/2 = sqrt(x)
Hope this helps!
