Answer:
p=-6
q=3
Step-by-step explanation:
5p-3q=-39
-2p-3q=3
Multiply the second equation by -1
2p +3q = -3
Add the first equation and the modified second equation
5p-3q=-39
2p +3q = -3
---------------------
7p = -42
Divide by 7
7p/7 = -42/7
p = -6
Now we can find q
2p +3q = -3
2(-6) +3q = -3
-12 +3q = -3
Add 12 to each side
-12+12 +3q = -3+12
3q = 9
Divide by 3
3q/3 = 9/3
q=3
Answer:
<h3>a) 5 flowers</h3><h3>b) Trapezoid</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
For one flower, the following shapes are used;
6 yellow hexagons, 2 red trapezoids and 9 green triangles
If we are given 30 yellow hexagons 50 red trapezoids and 60 green triangles, to get the number of flowers we can make, we will find the greatest common factor of 30, 50 and 60
30 = 6*5
50 = (2*5)+40
60 = (9*5)+15
We can see that 5 is common to all the factors. This means that we can make 5 flowers if they were changed to 30 yellow hexagons 50 red trapezoids and 60 green triangles.
Since there are 40 trapezoids left and 15 green triangles left, hence the shape that would have n as left over most is trapezoid (40 left over)
1. Any number above 13 works. Why? Because 20-7=13, and to be greater than 20, you must add a number larger than 13.
Examples: 14+7 > 20, 30+7 > 20, 100+7 > 20
2. Any number below 25/3 (which is also 8.3 with a repeating 3) works. Why? Because 25/3=8.3 with a repeating 3, and to remain less than 25, you must multiply by a number less than 8.3 with a repeating 3.
Examples: 3(8) < 25, 3(5) < 25, 3(0) < 25
3. 4 buses. 1 bus will hold 60 students, 2 will hold 120, 3 will hold 180, and 4 will hold 240. The question is trying to trick you into putting now 3.3333333333... buses because that's what 200/60 is, but there is no such thing as a third of a bus. So you need at least 4 buses. (There will be an extra 40 spaces for passengers on the 4th bus, but that is okay.)
To find this answer I did 200/60 and got 3.3 with a repeating 3. You must round to the higher whole number. Rounding down to 3 buses leaves you with 20 students without a bus.
4. 19 boxes. 18 boxes will only hold 288 candies. The question is trying to trick you into putting down 18.75 boxes because that's what 300/16 is, but there is no such thing as 75% of a box. So you need at least 19 boxes. (There will be an extra 4 spaces for candies in the 19th box, but that is okay.)
To find this answer I did 300/16 and got 18.75. You must round to the higher whole <span>number. Rounding down to 18 boxes leaves you with 12 candies without a box.</span>
The answer is 64. Hope it helps you
