Answer:
15r
Step-by-step explanation:
Just "plug n chug" as my teacher would say. In other words, replace the letters with the values.
Choice A is (7,19) which means x = 7 and y = 19. Let's replace the x and y value with these numbers in both equations. If we get a true equation, then we found the answer.
2x-y = -5
2*7-19 = -5
14-19 = -5
-5 = -5 ... true
So that works. Let's try the other equation
x+3y = 22
7+3*19 = 22
7+57 = 22
64 = 22 ... false
So choice A is NOT the answer because of this. Let's try out choice B
2x-y = -5
2*4-9 = -5
-1 = -5 ... false
so B doesn't work either. How about C?
2x-y = -5
2*8-21 = -5
-5 = -5 ... that works
x+3y = 22
8+3*21 = 22
71 = 22 ... but this is false
So D has to be the answer. Let's check to confirm or not
2x-y = -5
2*1-7 = -5
-5 = -5 ... true
x+3y = 22
1+3*7 = 22
22 = 22 ... true
BOTH equations are true at the same time so (1,7) is definitely the final answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. This paragraph describes an observational study.
It is not a controlled experiment because the guidance counselors didn't plan to separate the students into 2 groups and then observe the results. They instead checked records.
2. The students who took Latin are the treatment group.
3. The fact that students decided on their own to take Latin is a confounding factor.
4. The students who did not take Latin are the placebo or control group.
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 = 75%
11/16 = about 68%
Therefore, 3/4 is greater
Fifteen increased by a number
