2a+3b = -1 | *3
3a +5b = -2 |* -2
6a+ 9b = -3
-6a -10b = 4
------------------
/ -b =1
b= -1
2a + 3b= -1
2a + 3* -1 = -1
2a -3= -1
2a = 3-1
2a=2
a=2:2
a=1
4.0 rounded to the nearest tenth
Answer:No, it didn't affect the inequality sign because we multiplied and divided by a negative number. In the 4th operation, the inequality sign changed because we divided by a negative number
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle can be calculated by the product of its length and the width. Here we are given the area and the length so we can simply calculate for width. The perimeter is the sum of all the side lengths of the shape. We calculate as follows:
Area = lxw
1/6 = 1.5w
w = 1/9
Perimeter = 2l + 2w
Perimeter = 5/9
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
