Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 1 is a SUM.
3y is a TERM.
9(5x + 1) is a PRODUCT.
9 is a FACTOR of 9(5x + 1).
5x + 1
---------- is a QUOTIENT.
3y
5 is the COEFFICIENT of x.
Answer:
x = -5
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x - 8y = 17
x = -5
y = 1
2x - 7y = -17
x = -5
y = 1
Let's take an example to illustrate this case:
<span>positive fraction = 2/7
</span>
<span>negative fraction = - 3/5
Now we need to subtract </span><span>- 3/5 from 2/7
Right?
2/7 - (-3/5) = 2/7 + 3/5
here we need to unify the denominators as follows:
the lowest common factor between 7 and 5 is 35
2/7 = 10/35
3/5 = 21/35
Now back to </span><span>2/7 + 3/5:
</span><span><span>2/7 + 3/5 = 10/35 + 21/35 = (10+21)/35 = 31/35
That's it
Hope that helps you</span>

Okay, so if it leaks out a pint every hour, and a gallon is 8 pints, it will take 8 hours to leak out 1 gallon. Since there are 24 hours in a day, it would leak out 3 gallons every day. Now, assuming the month we are talking about is 31 days, then we multiply 31 with 3, giving us 93 gallons in a month.
Do you need help with the third too?
