Answer:

x=2

y=−1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can multiply the second equation by 3:

{2x-3y=7

{9x+3y=15 add the two together (in columns):

11x+0=22

so that x=22/11=2

substitute this back into the first equation:

2*2-3y=7

y=-1

One number is times a first number. A third number is 100 more than the first number. If the sum of the three numbers

icang [17]

When a number is 3 times a first number. A third number is 100 more than the first number and the sum of the three numbers is 450, the numbers are 70, 170 and 210.

<h3>How to calculate the numbers?</h3>

Let the first number = x

Second number = 3x

Third number = x + 100

Sum = 450

The numbers will be:

x + 3x + x + 100 = 450

5x + 100 = 450

5x = 450 - 100

5x = 350

Divide

x = 350 / 5

x = 70

First number = 70

Second number = 3x = 3 × 70 = 210

Third number = x + 100 = 70 + 100 = 170

Therefore, the numbers are 70, 170 and 210.

school teacher and needs 22 pieces of wood, 3 over 8 ft long, for a class project. If he has a 9-ft board from which to cut the

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Yes, he will have enough 3 over 8 ft pieces for his class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of wood required = 22

Length of each wood, $l=\frac{3}{8}\textrm{ ft}$

Total length of the board, $L=9\textrm{ ft}$

Therefore, the number of woods that can be made using the given board is given as:

$\textrm{Number of woods made}=\frac{\textrm{Total length of board}}{\textrm{Length of each wood}}\\\textrm{Number of woods made}=\frac{L}{l}=\frac{9}{\frac{3}{8}}=9\times \frac{8}{3}=\frac{72}{3}=24$

So, he can make 24 woods of length $\frac{3}{8}\textrm{ ft}$ using the 9 ft board. But he has to make only 22 pieces.

Therefore, he has enough of the wood to make the required number of pieces.
