If you have a problem like:
4x+2y=20
2x+2y=16
You would subtract
4x-2y=20
-2x+2y=16
You would get the new problum
2x=4
You now want to divide the 2 on both sides to solve for x
x=2
Now that you've solved for X you want to solve for y. So use substitution to solve for y. You would want to substatute the x for the 2 in either of the problums. I'll use the first one.
4(2)+2y=20
You first want to multiply te 4(2) you would get a new problum.
8+2y=20
Now you want to subtract the 8 on both sides.
2y=12
The last step to solve for y is to divide the 2 on both sides.
Y=6
So your answers would be
x=2
y=6
Answer:
58
Step-by-step explanation:
-14 + x = 44
x = 44 + 14
x = 58
Answer:
The major weakness of the Articles of Confederation was that it did not allow Congress to tax the nation, which caused debt issues (A).
Explanation:
Not only this but it prevented the Congress from forming a central government that would be capable of ruling the newly formed United States.
Answer:
12) A = 27
13) B = 36
14) C = 25
15) D = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to complete the ratio tables
We are given:
Footballs 15 5 20 C D
Baseballs A 9 B 45 54
The table shows the ratio of footballs to baseballs.
We are given the ratio 
All other ratios will also be simplified to get 
12) Calculate A
Footballs = 15
Baseballs = A
Common ratio is 5/9, we need to find a number that multiplies by 5 to get 15, same number will be multiplied by denominator to get A.
We know that 
So, A = 27
13) Calculate B
Footballs = 20
Baseballs = B
Common ratio is 5/9, we need to find a number that multiplies by 5 to get 20, same number will be multiplied by denominator to get B.
We know that 
So, B = 36
14) Calculate C
Footballs = C
Baseballs = 45
Common ratio is 5/9, we need to find a number that multiplies by 9 to get 45, same number will be multiplied by numerator to get C.
We know that 
So, C = 25
15) Calculate D
Footballs = D
Baseballs = 54
Common ratio is 5/9, we need to find a number that multiplied by 9 to get 54, same number will be multiplied by numerator to get D.
We know that 
So, D = 30
That is an isosceles right triangle. (Also known as a 45 45 90 triangle).
