Step-by-step explanation:

As instructed

Use Elimination Method....

2x - y = 2

2x - 2 = y

y = 2x - 2 ----------- equation 1

5x + y = -9

Substitute for y

5x + 2x - 2 = -9

7x = -9 + 2

7x = -7

x = -7/7

x = -1

Substitute for x in equation 1

y = 2x - 2

y = 2(-1) - 2

y = -2 - 2

y = -4

Answer:

(- 1, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - y = 2 → (1)

5x + y = - 9 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the y- term, that is

7x + 0 = - 7

7x = - 7 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

5(- 1) + y = - 9

- 5 + y = - 9 ( add 5 to both sides )

y = - 4

solution is (- 1, - 4 )

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

11 doesn't go into any numbers because it is prime, same with 17. 15 only goes into 3 and 5 so that's not it either. 21 only goes into 3 and 7, 26 doesn't go into 4 nor 6. 4 doesn't go into 30 evenly, so that leave just 10 and 12. 3,4,nor 6, go into 10. That leaves only 12 as the final answer.

When the Olympic Games were held outside Mexico City in 1968, there was much discussion about the effect the high altitude (7340
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: By moving from sea level to Mexico City  air pressure is reduced by 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this we have to apply a decrease rate formula

P0 (1-r)^x

Where:  

p0= initial pressure

r = decrease rate. (0.4 = 0.4/100=0.004 decimal form)

x = feet (hundredths, since the air pressure decays every 100 feet we have to divide the input value by 100)

Replacing with the values given

P0 (1- 0.4/100)^(7340/100) =

P0 (0.996)^73.4 =

P0 ( 0.75)=

The air pressure at Mexico City compared to the sea level is 75% (0.75 x 100 =75%)

To obtain the percent decrease  

100% -75% =25%
