Answer:
x = 1, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x + y = -3, we get y = 5x - 3.
Then plugs into the second equation, we get
-x - 5 (5x-3) = -11.
-x - 25x + 15 = -11,
-26x = -26
x = 1,
plugs x = 1 to y = 5x - 3, we get y = 2.
Answer:
25=bx+by
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that two 2 1/2 inch plastic strips and two 5 1/3 plastic strips are used to form a rectangle.
Let us find the length of the plastic strips.
Two 2 1/2 inch
= 
Two 5 1/3 inch

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is given by

The perimeter of the rectangle is 15.7 inches.
Well you did well in adding but remember it started as 12 on Monday. So you simply add 12 to 36 and the new answer is 48.
