Solve the system of equations using elimination.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: B. (3,9)

Step-by-step explanation:

7x -5y = -24(times by -1)

–9x + 5y = 18

-2x=-6

X= 3

(Substitute 3 in)

-9(3)+5y=18

-27+5y=18

5y=45

Y=9

You work at the grocery store part-time. You estimatethat you spend 3/5 of your time stocking shelves. Youwork 20 hours each wee

Whitepunk [10]

Let be "x" the number of hours of your work week you spend stocking shelves.

According to the information provided in the exercise, you work a total of 20 hours each week and you spend 3/5 of that time stocking shelves.

You can write that fraction as a decimal number by dividing the numerator by de denominator:

$\frac{3}{5}=0.6$

Then, to find the value of "x", you only need to multiply the total hours you work each week by 0.6.

Therefore, the result is:

$\begin{gathered} x=(20hours)(0.6) \\ x=12\text{hours} \end{gathered}$

You spend 12 hours of your work week stocking shelves.
