Given your ordered pair you would assume a = 5, b = 2
Set up both equations
5 + 2 = 7
7 = 7 (the numbers are equal so this correct)
2(5) - 8 = 2
10 - 8 = 2
2 = 2 (the numbers are equal so this is also correct)
Because both equations work with the ordered pair they <em>are</em><span> the solution of the given system.</span>
Answer:
I will answer in a general way because the options are not given.
We know that the area of model A is smaller than the area of model B.
For model A, we have 72 shaded sections, out of 100.
Then the quotient of model A is:
72/100 = 0.72
For model B we have 10 sections, and x shaded ones.
Because model B is greater than model A, we know that:
x/10 should be larger than 72/100
then we have the inequality:
x/10 > 0.72
x > 0.72*10
x > 7.2
And we can not have more than 10 shaded sections (because there is a total of 10 sections) then:
10 ≥ x > 7.2
Then x can be any whole number in that interval.
the possible values of x are:
x = 8
x = 9
x = 10
Answer: -6 - 5k
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(2+4k) +7(2k-1)
-6+(-12k) + 14k -7k
-6 -12k + 14k - 7k
-6 -5k
