Well, you can’t add them because 15 has a m and 35 doesn’t have a variable sooo? What are the answer choices?
Bring it to the form ax + by = c, where a is positive, and there are no fractions in the equation.
Here, we need to add 2/5x to both sides:
2/5x + y = 0
Then multiply everything by 5 to get rid of the fraction
2x + 5y = 0 <==
Plug in two values for x, say, 0 and 1.
Lets start with solving the equation when x=0.
y=2(0)-3
y=0-3
y=-3.
So, when x=0, y=-3. Graph (0, -3)
Next, x=1
y=2(1)-3
y=2-3
y=-1
So, when x=1, y=-1. Graph (1,-1)
Draw a line between the two points, and that should be your answer! Hope this helped :)
Answer:
696 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the sample of students 58/125 of them like milk.
So we can predict that 1500 * 58/125 of the 1500 students like milk.
This comes to (1500/125) * 58
= 12 * 58
= 696.
You can set up a system of equations with x being the smaller number and y being the larger number. So the first equation would be 2y=5x-14 and the second equation would be x=y-2. You can solve by substitution and substitute y-2 into the x in the first equation to get 2y=5(y-2)-14. You can solve this out and it ends up simplifying to y=8. So you know the larger number is 8. So since the larger number is 8 and they are consecutive even integers, the smaller number must be 6. So the two numbers would be 6 and 8.
