Answer:

1) Subtracting one from the other

2) x = 0.375 and y = 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1 :

\frac{2x+1}{2y}=7\\\\

Equation 2:

\frac{6x-1}{2y}=5

To solve these equations by the Elimination method we multiply equation 1 with 6 and multiply equation 2 with 2 so now,

\frac{2x+1}{2y} =7\\\\2x+1=14y\\\\Multiplying\ Equation\ 1\  with\ 6\\\\12x+6=84y

Now for the second equation:

\frac{6x-1}{2y}=5\\\\6x-1=10y\\\\Multiplying\ equation\ 2\ with\ 2 \\\\12x-2=20y

Now subtracting equation 2 from equation 1

12x+6=84y\\\\12x-2=20y\\\\Subtracting\ leads\ to\\12x-12x+6-(-2)=84y-20y\\0+8=64y\\8=64y\\8/64=y\\0.125=y

now insert this value of y into any equation

lets insert it into equation 1

\frac{2x+1}{2y} =7\\\\2x+1=14y\\2x+1=14(0.125)\\2x+1=1.75\\2x=1.75-1\\2x=0.75\\x=0.75/2\\x-0.375

Which College entrance exam has the least amount of math problems to work? ​
taurus [48]

Answer:

SAT

Step-by-step explanation:

The two main college entrance exams are the SAT and ACT which are used for almost all colleges in the United States. Between these two the SAT has a lesser focus on math in general. Instead, the SAT tends to focus more on word problems and the process taken to solve them. This does not mean that it has no math at all, there is still a math section on the SAT's but it is not as extensive as in the ACT's.

I need help with this <br><br> 10 points <br><br> Pls pls pls someone come help me
Vikki [24]

Answer:

angle b is 62 degrees. This is because if we solve for x, by putting the 2 equations equal to each other(because they are vertical angles), than we figure out that x=6. Now plug that into angle b's equation, and you get 62 degrees.
