3x + 2y = 10 .....multiply by -2
2x + 3y = 15/2...multiply by 3
------------------
-6x - 4y = -20 (result of multiplying by -2)
6x + 9y = 22.5 (result of multiplying by 3)
-----------------add
5y = 2.5
y = 2.5/5
y = 1/2
3x + 2y = 10
3x + 2(1/2) = 10
3x + 1 = 10
3x = 10 - 1
3x = 9
x = 9/3
x = 3
solution is (3,-1/2)
Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation: add 5 on each side and you get -50 then divide -5/2 with -50 and get 5
Answer:
x = 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
AD/AB = DE/BC (Similarity Theorem)
AD = 6 + 4 = 10
AB = 6
DE = 2
BC = x
Plug in the values
10/6 = 2/x
Cross multiply
10*x = 2*6
10x = 12
Divide both sides by 10
x = 12/10
x = 1.2
Answer: " 15 % " .
_______________________________
→ " 12 is <u> 15% </u> of 80 " .
_______________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
_______________________________
12 = (n/100) * 80 ;
12 = (80n) /100 ; Solve for "n:
Note: 80/100 = (80/10) / (100/10) = (8/10) = 0.8 ;
12 = (0.8)n ;
↔ (0.8n) = 12
Multiply each side of the equation by "10" ; to get rid of the "decimal" ;
10 * (0.8n) = 10 * 12 ;
to get:
_______________________________
8n = 120 ;
Divide each side of the equation by "8" ;
to isolate "n" on ONE SIDE of the equation; & to solve for "n" ;
8n/8 = 120/ 8 ;
_______________________________
to get:
_______________________________
n = 15 .
_______________________________
Answer: " 15 % " .
_______________________________
→ " 12 is <u> 15% </u> of 80 " .

2/7 is the probability that the first satellite sends a weak signal. That leaves 6, one of which sends a weak signal. So the probability that the second also sends a weak signal is 1/6. Combine these and we get 2/7×1/6=1/21.
