Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations are "consistent" and "not dependent." This will be the case whenever the ratios of x- and y-coefficients are different.

We can solve this by "elimination" by multiplying the first equation by -4 and adding the result of the second equation being multiplied by 7.
-4(2x -7y) +7(7x -4y) = -4(19) +7(5)
-8x +28y +49x -28y = -76 +35 . . . . eliminate parentheses
41x = -41 . . . . . simplify
x = -1 . . . . . . . divide by 41
Using the second equation, we find y to be ...
(7x -5)/4 = y = (7(-1) -5)/4 = -12/4 = -3
So, the solution is (x, y) = (-1, -3).
I’m not sure if this is a question, but yes, i like to use “PEMDAS”.
Parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract.
You always go in order from left to right!
Im pretty sure the answer is 1/3
Hello!
Sometimes when there are outliers in a data set, for example 1, 20,25,26,30, one is the outlier and when you find the mean it will not represent the data in the most accurate way. This is when you use the median to represent the part of the data set that has the information that is close together.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Sequence 1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>You need to find the difference between term - the nth term.</u>
<u>The difference / nth term has to to -1/2 (-0.5)</u>
Sequence 1:
-6 * -0.5 = 3 * -0.5 = -3/2 (-1.5) * -0.5 = 3/4 (0.75) * -0.5 = -3/8 (-0.375)
Sequence 2:
4 * -2 = -8 *-2 = 16 * -2 = - 32 * -2 = 64
Sequence 3:
-1/3 ÷ 2 = -1/6 ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 2 = 24 ÷ 2 = 48
Sequence 4:
400 ÷ -2 = -200 ÷ -2 = 100 ÷ -2 = -50 ÷ -2 = 25
The only sequence with a common ratio of -1/2 is Sequence 1.
