3x + 5y = 1 . . . . . . . . (1)
7x + 4y = -13 . . . . . . .(2)
(1) x 7: 21x + 35y = 7 . . (3)
(2) x 3: 21x + 12y = -39 .(4)
(3) - (4) = 23y = 46
y = 46/23 = 2
Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
there is 12 inches in a foot
there are 3 feet in a yard
3 x 12 = 36 in in a yard
36 x 5 1/2 is 198
198 is greater than 192
Dividing by a fraction means the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.
In other words, change the division sign to multiplication
and flip or take the reciprocal of the second fraction.
So we can rewrite 2/13 ÷ 1/6 as 2/13 × 6/1.
Now multiply across the numerators and denominators to get 12/13.
Answer: Most likely, the value of w is 5 units.
Step-by-step explanation: P = 2L + 2w
If the perimeter is 28, the side lengths must be less than 14, otherwise there is no width, just two lines on top of one another.
If the width is 7, then all four sides would be 7 units, and <u>that would create a square</u>-- which is a type of rectangle-- but probably not what this question is about.
A width of 5 units makes sense, 2w would be 10, leaving 28-10 = 18 to be divided by 2 for lengths of 9
The rectangle would have a width of 5 units and a length of 9 units.
