Answer:
C. 1/2
There are many ways to do this but I'll use substitution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Bottom equation yields x = 4 - 8y
plug that into the top equation results in:
4(4 - 8y) - y = 3y + 7
Simplify this to find y:
-36y = -9
y = 1/4
Plug that into the bottom equation we get:
x = 4 - 2 = 2
Thus, xy = 2(1/4) = 1/2 (C)

Answer:
10,600
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria grew in 2 hours by 800. Divide that and that it by 400 per hour.
Since it is a proportional rate, we can assume that the rate continue through till midnight.
Since midnight is 12 hours after noon then the bacteria grow 400 (12)=4800.
We add this to the population at noon 5800+4800=10,600.
Answer:
Both boats will be 54 miles apart after 3 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that from a point on a river, two boats are driven in opposite directions, one at 7 miles per hour and the other at 11 miles per hour, to determine how many hours they will be 54 miles apart, the following calculation must be performed :
54 / (11 + 7) = X
54/18 = X
3 = X
Therefore, both boats will be 54 miles apart after 3 hours.
