Answer:
-0.38268343236 (or 0.382)
It will. Be the third one
The system:
y = 3 x - 7
15 x - 5 y = 14
---------------------
Using the substitution method:
15 x - 5 · ( 3 x - 7 ) = 14
15 x - 15 x + 35 = 14
0 · x = 14 - 35
0 · x = - 21
x , y ∈ ∅
Answer:
D ) There is no solution.
P + r = 2.50
r = p + 1
p + p + 1 = 2.50
2p + 1 = 2.50
2p = 2.50 - 1
2p = 1.50
p = 1.50/2
p = 0.75 <=== pencil cost 75 cents
r = p + 1
r = 0.75 + 1
r = 1.75 .....ruler cost 1.75
Remark
The key step is just to subtract 5 from both sides. The pointed of the inequality still points away from the variable and towards the number. As long as that remains true, the correct answer can be found.
Solution
2.7 ≤ b + 5 Subtract 5 from both sides.
2.7 - 5 ≤ b
- 2.3 ≤ b Write with the variable on the left.
b ≥ - 2.3 <<<< answer
