Ok since you are solving for w, you remove the parentheses first w-(-7) it would convert to a +7, so the equation would be w+7=2 subtract the 7,on both sides to isolate the w. And w=-5.
Answer:
(x, y) = (-4, 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations have the same coefficient for y, so you can eliminate y by subtracting one equation from the other. Here the x coefficient is largest for the first equation, so it will work best to subtract the second equation.
(3x +y) -(2x +y) = (3) -(7)
x = -4 . . . . . . . . simplify
Now, we can find y by substituting this value for x.
2(-4) +y = 7
y = 7 +8 = 15 . . . . . add 8 to both sides of the equation
The solution is (x, y) = (-4, 15).
Answer:
d. 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
7/8 - 0.85
3/5 - 0.6
5/2 - 2.5
2/9 - 0.222... the two is a recurring number
Answer:
b. 11 apples; 1 orange
Step-by-step explanation:
We test each option, and see if the total is $3.50(what you spend). If the result is different, it is not a possible solution.
a. 1 apple; 11 oranges
1 apple for $0.20
11 oranges for $0.30 each
0.20 + 11*0.30 = $3.50
Possible solution
b. 11 apples; 1 orange
11 apples for $0.20 each
1 orange for $0.30
11*0.2 + 0.3 = 2.5
Not $3.5, so this is not a possible solution.
This is the answer
c. 7 apples; 7 oranges
7*0.2 + 7*0.3 = $3.5
Possible
d. 4 apples; 9 oranges
4*0.2 + 9*0.3 = $3.5
Possible
