4x + 3y = 54 (1)
3x + 9y = 108 (2)
Multiply (1) by (-3)
-12x - 9y = -162
3x + 9y = 108
---------------------add
-9x = -54
x = 6
plug x = 6 into (1) to find y
4(6) + 3y = 54
24 + 3y = 54
3y = 30
y = 10
Answer
(6 , 10)
Hope it helps.
Answer:
k = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a varies directly as b then the equation relating them is
a = kb ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition a = 8 when b = 2
k = 
= 
= 4
Answer:
if its 16 then its 24
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the GCF:
-- List the factors of the first number.
-- List the factors of the second number.
-- Make a short list of the factors that show up for BOTH numbers.
-- Find the biggest number on the short list.
Factors of the first number (99): <u>1</u>, 3, 9, <u>11</u>, 33, 99 .
Factors of the second number (121): <u>1</u>, <u>11</u>, 121 .
Short list (factors that show up for both numbers): 1, 11
Biggest number on the short list: <em>11</em>
