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
3 3/4 pounds so 3×3/4 = 2 1/4(mixed fraction)
2 1/4÷ 1/8= 2 1/4 × 8/1
for fraction division, yo
u keep the first fraction and flip the second fraction around. than you change the divide sign to multiply sign to find the answer
Let's try the actual solution of the system
<span>y = –2x + 1
y = –2x – 3
Note that the slopes of the graphs of these two lines are the same: -2.
That means that the lines are parallel to one another.
Only the y-intercepts (1 and -3) are different.
Since the 2 lines never intersect, the system has no solution.

Answer:
The total weight of the metal bar in pounds is 25 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Now, we have a metal bar which has a content of 60% zinc corresponding to 15 pounds.
Mathematically, let’s say the total weight of the metal composite is x pounds. It is 60% of this that is 15 pounds which is the content of the zinc
Mathematically;
60/100 * x = 15
60x = 15 * 100
60x = 1500
x = 1500/60
x = 25 pounds
m - 9 = 42
42 is our final answer so that should be by itself.
If something is being decreased by 9, that means that we are taking away 9 from something so it should be m - 9.
