Answer:

Solution: x = 2, y = -1 or (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1:  2x + y = 3

Equation 2: 5x - 2y = 12

Using the substitution method:

Transform the Equation 1 into its slope-intercept form:

2x + y = 3

2x - 2x + y = -2x + 3

y = 2x + 3

Substitute the value of y = -2x + 3 into Equation 2:

5x - 2y = 12

5x - 2(-2x + 3) = 12

5x + 4x - 6 = 12

9x - 6 = 12

9x - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6

9x = 18

9x/9 = 18/9

x = 2

Substitute the value of x = 2 into Equation 2 to solve for y:

5x - 2y = 12

5(2) - 2y = 12

10 - 2y = 12

10 - 10 - 2y = 12 - 10

-2y = 2

-2y/-2 = 2/-2

y = -1

Double-check whether the values for x and y will provide a true statement for both equations:

Equation 1:  2x + y = 3

2(2) + (-1) = 3

4 - 1 = 3

3 = 3 (True statement)

Equation 2: 5x - 2y = 12

5(2) - 2(-1) = 12

10 + 2 = 12

12 = 12 (True statement)

Therefore, the correct answers are: x = 2; y = -1 or (2, -1).

Can you help me with number 3? Please!!!!
Fantom [35]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Take it step by step.

The area of a rectangle is width times length.

We know the length is 7 since it's given, and we can find the width by adding shared sides of the square and triangle.

So the width is 10 + 14 or 24

That means the area of the rectangle is 7 * 24

The area of the second rectangle is 12 * 14, since they are both given.

Finally, the area of the triangle is 1/2 of the base times height and we can find the height by looking at the shared side and using the definition of a rectangle.

So the area of the triangle is 1/2 of 10 * 12.

elixir [45]

Answer: 1

Scotland

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first vote, points are:

France = 15

England = 12 + 16 = 28

Ireland = 19

2nd vote

England = 15

Scotland = 12 + 19 = 31

Ireland = 16

3rd vote

Scotland = 15 + 16 = 31

Ireland = 12

England = 19

4th vote

Ireland = 15

France = 12 + 16 + 19 = 47

At the end of everything

England = 19 + 15 + 28 = 62

France = 15 + 47 = 62

Scotland = 31 + 31 = 62

Ireland = 19 + 16 + 12 + 15 = 62

To find the Condorcet winner, the number of votes for runner over opponent (runner,opponent) is compared with the number of votes for opponent over runner (opponent,runner)  

Only Scotland has the highest (31) points twice.
