Y = -3x - 1......so we sub in -3x - 1 in for y in the other equation
2x + 5y = 12
2x + 5(-3x - 1) = 12....now distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
2x - 15x - 5 = 12...add 5 to both sides
2x - 15x = 12 + 5..combine like terms
-13x = 17...divide both sides by -13
x = -17/13
now sub in -17/13 for x in the other equation
y = -3x - 1
y = -3(-17/13) - 1
y = 51/13 - 1
y = 51/13 - 13/13
y = 38/13
so the solution is (-17/13, 38/13)
I believe it's four times as great : )
Answer:
The answer to your question is "2"
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
12x - 7 > 6
Process
1.- Add +7 in both sides of the inequality
12x - 7 + 7 > 6 + 7
2.- Simplify
12x > 13
3.- Divide by 12 both sides
12x/12 > 13/12
x > 13/12 or x > 1.08
4.- Conclusion
All the numbers higher than 1.08 are solutions of this inequality
Then, from the choices, the only possible solution is 2.
Answer=6 pieces
First lets convert 3/4 to ?/8...

3/4 is equivalent to 6/8.
Now we can divide 6/8 by 1/8

Answer=6 pieces
Answer:
$15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Aunt's distance = 120 miles
Miles per gallon of Olivia's car = 24 miles per gallon
Cost of gasoline = 3 per gallon
Cost of gasoline for the trip :
(Aunt's distance / miles per gallon) * cost of gasoline per gallon
(120 miles / 24 miles per gallon) * 3
5 * 3 = $15
Cost of gasoline for the trip = $15
