Answer: No, it is not a solution

==========================================================

Explanation:

The point (3,-4) means that x = 3 and y = -4 pair up together

Let's plug these x,y values into each equation

Starting with the first equation, we get,

y = 4x-16

-4 = 4(3)-16 ... x replaced with 3; y replaced with -4

-4 = 12-16

-4 = -4 .... this is a true statement

Repeat for the second equation

y = 2x-6

-4 = 2(3)-6

-4 = 6-6

-4 = 0 ... this is false

Since we get a false statement, this means (3,-4) is not on the line y = 2x-6, which means that overall (3,-4) is not a solution to the system of equations. The point (3,-4) must make both equations true for it to be a solution.

Effectus [21]

Answer:\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Student council has 6 girls and 3 boys

If two person chosen at random

Probability that first officer is girl and second is a boy

=\text{Probability of choosing a girl officer}\times \text{Probability of choosing a boy officer}

=\frac{^6C_1}{^9C_1}\times \frac{^3C_1}{^8C_1}

=\frac{6}{9}\times \frac{3}{8}

=\frac{1}{4}

Jazmin is completing an art project. She has two pieces of construction paper. The first piece is 4 4 4444 inches wide and the s
poizon [28]

Answer:

Each strip should 11 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Jazmin has two pieces of construction paper. The first piece is 44 inches wide and the second piece is 33 inches wide. Jazmin wants to cut the paper into strips that are equal in width and are as wide as possible.

To find the greatest possible width of each strip we will find GCF of 44 and 33.

Factors of 44 are: 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44.

Factors of 33 are: 1, 3,11, 33.

We can see that 11 is the greatest common factor of 44 and 33 as 11*4=44 and 11*3=33, therefore, Jasmine should cut each strip 11 inches wide.

Vivian is working with a Styrofoam cube for art class. The length of one side is 5 in. How much surface area does Vivian have to
Sphinxa [80]
The answer is 150in squared. 

Because the SA of one side is 5*5 which is 25, and since all of the sides are equal and there are six sides you multiply 25 by 6, which equals 150.
