Answer:
15 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
proportion:
2/5:6/X
2x=30
x=15
The answer is 2.756 in pound's
You need to tell how many percent you will discount and then find the new price
(3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x + 4
-x + 3y = -9
-x + 3 (-2x + 4) = -9
-x + -6x + 12 = -9
-7x = - 9 – 12
-7x = - 21
X = 3
We substitute x with 3 to evaluate y;
-3 + 3y = -9
3y = -6
y = -2
Elimination Method;
y = -2x + 4
-x + 3y = -9
We arrange the equations for substitution;
2x + y = 4
-x + 3y = -9
We multiply the first equation with 3 so we can substract one variable to zero;
3 (2x + y = 4)
= 6x + 3y = 12
Then we subtract the two;
6x + 3y = 12
-x + 3y = -9
7x = 21
x = 3
We evaluate y by substitution x with 3 in one of the equation;
-x + 3y = -9
-3 + 3y = -9
3y = -6
y = -2
The final answer expressed as a coordinate point is;
(3, -2)
