For the first one multiply each term by the LCM of 4 and 6, which is 12:-
15x -36 = 2y..................(1)
and second multiply by 5:-
2x + y = 9..............(2)
solving:-
from equation (2) y = 9-2x, substitute in equation (1):-
15x - 36 = 2(9-2x) = 18 - 4x
19x = 54
x = 54/19 = 2.84
so y = 9 - 2(2.84) = 3.32
Answer:
there can only be 1 pipe that will be 23 feet long because 23 don't go into 30 more than 1 time
Step-by-step explanation:
The function has a slope : m = - 2 and contains the point ( 8, 12 ).
y = m x + b
12 = ( - 2 ) * 8 + b
12 = - 16 + b
b = 12 + 16
b = 28
The slope-intercept form of the function is:
y = - 2 x + 28
then you figure out what you divide 56 by to get 4. which is 14. then you divide 42 by the same number 14.
