Answer:
Large Box = 18.5
Small Box = 15.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = large box and y = small box
5x+6y=187
3x+2y=87
cancel out one equation
(5x+6y=187)•3=15x+18y=561
(3x+2y=87)•-5=15x+10y=435
15x+18y=561
-15x-10y=-435
–––––––––––
0+ 8y= 126
8y÷8 =126÷8
y=15.75
Substitute y into either original equation
3x+2(15.75)=87
3x+ 31.5=87
3x+ 31.5-31.5=87-31.5
3x=55.5
3x÷3=55.5÷3
x=18.5
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
because the triangle is an acute triangle all three sides are the same and because its cut in half HIK=HJK
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC+DAB=180
DAB=180-115
DAB= 65
m<3+m<4=65
m<3=65-m<4
You have been given 4 degrees there, but it has not fallen. The answer is either A or B. Subtracting the conditional degree from 65. Find 3.
Answer: Option C) Raj forgot the negative when substituting -15+9x for y.
Solution:
(1) 9x-y=15
(2) 2x+8y=28
Isolating y in the first equation. Subtracting 9x both sides of the equation:
(1) 9x-y-9x=15-9x
Subtracting:
(1) -y=15-9x
Multiplying both sides of the equation by -1:
(1) (-1)(-y)=(-1)(15-9x)
(1) y=-15+9x
Then Raj found the value of y. It's not option D.
Substitutng y by -15+9x in the second equation:
(2) 2x+8(-15+9x)=28
Then option C) is the answer: Raj forgot the negative when substituting -15+9x for y.
Eliminating the parentheses applying the distributive property in the multiplication:
(2) 2x-120+72x=28
Adding similar terms:
(2) 74x-120=28
Solving for x. Adding 120 both sides of the equation:
(2) 74x-120+120=28+120
Adding:
(2) 74x=148
Dividing both sides of the equation by 74:
(2) 74x/74=148/74
Dividing:
(2) x=2
Solving for y: Replacing x by 2 in the first equation:
(1) y=-15+9x
(1) y=-15+9(2)
Multiplying:
(1) y=-15+18
Subtracting:
(1) y=3
