Answer:
The correct answer is D) (-2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this system of equations, start by multiplying the entire first equation by 2. Then add the two equations together. This will get the y's to cancel and allow you to solve for x.
-4x + 2y = -10
3x - 2y = 12
---------------------
-x = 2
x = -2
Now that we have the value for x, we can find y by plugging the x value into either equation.
-2x + y = -5
-2(2) + y = -5
-4 + y = -5
y = -1
Answer:
Katherine: 920
Crystal: 552
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount earned by each is 1472
The ratio of the earnings is Katherine / Crustal = 5/3
The total number of shares = 5 + 3 = 8
So the proportion for Katherine
5/8 = x / 1472 Cross multiply
8x = 5 * 1472
8x = 7360
x = 7360/8
x = 920
And the proportion for Crystal is
3/8 = x / 1472 Cross multiply
8x = 3 * 1472
8x = 4416
x = 4416 / 8
x = 552
Answer:
x = 5
or
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -8x its coefficient is -8 .
The last term, "the constant", is +15
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 15 = 15
Step-2 : Find two factors of 15 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -8 .
-15 + -1 = -16
-5 + -3 = -8
Hello,
Just for the fun, it's been a long time for that.
