Answer:
6/8
just add the fractions together after making the bottom the same
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations appear to be ...
- 12x +4y = 152
- 32x +12y = 420
These can be solved for y using Cramer's rule:
y = (152(32) -420(12))/(4(32) -12(12)) = -176/-16 = 11
The cost of the vegetarian lunch is 11.

<em>Comment on Cramer's Rule</em>
For equations ...
ax +by =c
dx +ey = f
The solutions are ...
x = (bf -ey)/(bd -ea)
y = (cd -fa)/(bd -ea) . . . . note the denominators are the same expression
Once you memorize the pattern of products, this can be the simplest way to solve a pair of equations--especially if you only need one of the variable values.

Answer:
12 less than or equal to 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the decimal number as a fraction
(over 1)
0.87 = 0.87 / 1
Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 2 decimal places
we multiply top and bottom by 2 10's
Numerator (N)
N = 0.87 × 10 × 10 = 87
Denominator (D)
D = 1 × 10 × 10 = 100
N / D = 87 / 100
Simplifying our fraction
= 87/100
