Answer: x= -189, y =252

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x and second number be y

so

x + y = 63

x = 63-y

now

1/9 of x + 1/6 of y = 21

x/9 + y/6 = 21

substituting x's value from equation i

(63-y)/9 + y/6 = 21

(378-6y+9y)/54 = 21

378+3y = 1134

3y = 1134-378

so, 3y = 756

so, y = 756/3

so, y = 252

now

x = 63-252

so, x = -189

if about 32,834.5 kilobytes of memory is still available how many more pictures can they take if you have only taken 43 pictures
oksano4ka [1.4K]
That will depend, you have to ask yourself first how many kilobytes one picture is. Let's just say that the size of one picture is 100 kb (which is the average size of a picture) Then first you multiply 100 kb with the number of pictures which is 43. Now you have a total used up memory of 4300 kb. After that, you minus the used up memory which is 4300 kb, to the total available space which is 32,834.5 and you will get an available space of 28534.5 kb. After that, you divide the remaining available space with the size of each picture. So this will be 28534.5 divided by 100. You will get 285. You can still take 285 pictures.

Describe how to compare the two ratios 5:8 to 7:9. Tell each step to set up the ratios, then explain what to do to be able to co
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

5/8 is smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio is just a different type of fraction, a 5:8 ratio means 5/8 which is 0.625. A 7:9 ratio equals 7/9 which is 0.777777

Then to compare them you see which is smaller or bigger.

0.77777  is bigger than 0.625 so we know that 0.77777777 which was the 7:9 ratio is the bigger one.

PLEASE HELP!!!!
Lisa [10]

Answer:

x = - 3 with multiplicity 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 3)(x + 3)(x + 3) = (x - 3)(x + 3)²

Equating each factor to zero and solving for x

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3 with multiplicity 1

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = -3

Thus x = - 3 has multiplicity of 2

The fact that the factor is squared gives the multiplicity

(x + 3)³ has root - 3 of multiplicity 3
