We can let
a = 1/(x-1)
b = 1/(y+2)
and rewrite the equations as
2a - b = 10
a + 3b = -9
Using the first to write an expression for b, we get
b = 2a - 10
Substituting this into the second equation gives
a + 3(2a -10) = -9
7a -30 = -9 . . . . . . . . simplify
7a = 21 . . . . . . . . . . .add 30
a = 3
b = 2·3 - 10 = -4
Now, we can find x and y.
3 = 1/(x -1)
x - 1 = 1/3
x = 1 1/3 = 4/3
-4 = 1/(y +2)
y +2 = -1/4
y = -2 1/4 = -9/4
Then the desired sum is
x + y = 4/3 -9/4 = (16 -27)/12
x + y = -11/12
The appropriate choice is ..
c. -11/12

Answer:
28cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A=a+b
2h=4+10
2·4= 28cm
Answer:
6 is 100 times 0.06
Step-by-step explanation:
0.06 times 100 = 6
Since there are 63 passengers and it is $26 for each passenger,you have to do 63 x $26. 63 x $26 = $1638,so $1638 was collected from the passengers.
