a = 56

given 28 = \frac{1}{2} a

multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction

56 = a

As a check

\frac{1}{2} × 56 = 28 ← True

A coin weighs 5/6 ounces. Ann picked up 3 of these coins.
JulsSmile [24]
How I’d do it:
5/6 three times makes 15/6. Made into a mixed fraction is 2 3/6, which in its simplest form is 2 1/2.
When converted to ounces, assuming that 6/6 is one complete ounce, then you get 2.5 ounces.
The total weight she picked up is 2.5 ounces.

Please help with question 15 and 16!!!
kykrilka [37]
15. [4] insufficient information. only given SA
16. There are 3 right triangles, 3 Pythagorean theorem equations 
x²+b²= 16²
12²+a² = x²
a²+4² = b²

combine equations using substitution to get in terms of only x
substitute b² for (a² +x²) in first equation
x²+a²+4²=16²
substitute a² for (x² - 12²)
x²+x²-12²+4² = 16²
solve for x
2x² - 144 + 16 = 256
2x² = 256 + 144 - 16
2x² = 384
x² = 384/2
x² = 192
x = 13.85

rounded to nearest tenth, x = 13.9

X + y = -1<br> 4x - 2y = -16
djyliett [7]

Answer:

x=-3 \\and\\ y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = -1       Equation:1

4x - 2y = -16    Equation:2

Solving Equation:1

x+y=-1

Subtracting 'y' from both the sides:

x+y-y=-1-y\\\\x=-1-y

Putting 'x' in Equation :2

       4(-1-y)-2y=-16\\\\-4-4y-2y=-16\\\\-4-6y=-16

Adding '4' both the sides

          -6y=-16+4\\\\-6y=-12\\\\y=-12/-6\\\\y=2

Putting the value of 'y' in equation:1

           x+y=-1

           x+(2)=-1\\\\x=-1-2\\\\x=-3\\

The solution is:

          x=-3 \\and\\ y=2
