9x - 2y = 11 ... (i)
5x - 2y = 15 ... (ii)
Subtracting equation (ii) from (i) we get;
4x + 0 = -4
4x=-4 , x = -1
Replacing x = -1 in equation (i) we get;
9(-1) - 2y = 11
-9 - 2y = 11
-2y = 20
y = 20 ÷ -2 = -10
The solution to the system of equations is (-1,-10).
I think it’s either 4 or 20
5 x 4 =20
6 x 4 =20
Answer:
1500 students
600 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
40% are boys, so 60% are girls.
Writing a proportion:
900 / 60% = x / 100%
x = 1500
There are 1500 students in the school, which means there are 600 boys in the school.
Answer:
150/250
Step-by-step explanation:
24/42, 75/135, 150/250, and 75/150 I believe is what you're asking. We know 75/135 is better than 75/150 so 75/150 is out of the equation. If we multiple 75/135 by 2 we get 150/270 which is more than 150/250, so 75/135 is out of the equation. Now to compare 24/42 and 150/250 we can divide their fractions, if we divide 24/42 we get 0.57, so 57%. If we did 150/250 we get 0.6 or 60%. So 150/250 is the best score.
