T = large candles and s = small candles
3t + 5s = 6.40
4t + 6s = 7.50
^^ this would be ur system of equations
S = n(a1 + an)/2
2S = n(a1 + an)
2S = na1 + nan
nan = 2S - na1
an = (2S - n a1)/n
Trisha - 17 percent
Anchara - 4/25 = 0.16 = 16 percent
Juanita - 16 - 13.3 = 2.7 2.7/16 (since 16 is the total) = 0.16875 = 16.875 percent
So Trisha reduced her time by the greatest percent (17)
Answer:
B. (-2,-4)
Explanation
Given equations:
y = 3x + 2
y = -2x - 8
Solving both equations will yield the values of x and y;
Solution:
y = 3x + 2 ----- (i)
y = -2x - 8 ------ (ii)
Using substitution method, input equation i, into ii
3x + 2 = -2x - 8
Collect like terms and solve;
3x + 2x = -8 -2
5x = -10
x = -2
Then put x = -2 into i, to find y
y = (-2 x 3) + 2
y = -6 + 2 = -4
So, the solution of the equation is B. (-2,-4)
32. 16 through opposite vertices and 16 through the centres of opposite sides
