Answer:
x=3, y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:

Double the first equation, then add the second
6x+2y=16
+ 2x-2y=8
The y's cancel each other out.
8x=24
x=3
Solve for y
6-2y=8
2y=-2
y=-1
Double check:
6(3)+2(-1)=16
18-2=16
Yay!
Answer:
I believe the inequality would be: p+2x3<40
Step-by-step explanation:
Not exactly sure if it is correct but p (number of pencils Sarahi has) added too the 2 more she finds, and then x3 (when she triples her amount). This is less then (<) what Damaris has (which is 40) so it would be p+2x3<40.
Again not sure if its completely correct, but i hope it helps :,)
You can use the pythagorean theorem. Make sure that you put the measurements in the right places though. Since 11 is the measure of the hypotenuse, 11 has to be c. When you plug in the information that you have, it should look like this:
8^2 + b^2 = 11^2
Square 8 and 11.
64 + b^2 = 121
Subtract 64 from 121
121 - 64 = 57
The new equation is:
b^2 = 57
Now take the square root of both sides to get b by itself.
b = about 7.5
Answer: The height of the triangle is 7.5

Changing a fraction to its decimal form can be done by long division method. Dividing the denominator by its numerator will change the fraction into decimal form. Alternatively, you can use a calculator to do that for you. Below are the fractions with their decimal forms listed:
1.) 2/5 = 0.4 (D)
2.) 7/20 = 0.35 (A)
3.) 3/25 = 0.12 (C)
4.) 7/10 = 0.7 (B)
