Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To see is (-1, -1) is a solution to the system, we can plug it into the system to check:

-1 = -8(-1)-9

-1 = 8-9

-1 = -1

-1 = -5(-1)-6

-1 = 5-6

-1 = -1

Both of the equations are true, therefore (-1, -1) is a solution to the system.

Suppose that w and t vary inversely and that t = 5/12

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Option B. t=5/3w ;1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that $w$ varies Inversely with $t$ thus generally speaking $w$ ∝ $\frac{1}{t}$ since they are inverted, otherwise if they were proportionally varied then $w$ ∝ $t$ . This means that there is a constant value ( $a$ ) for which $w$ is inversely proportional to $t$ and can be mathematically expressed as:

$w=\frac{a}{t}$ Eqn. (1)

Now since we are given the values of $w=4$ and $t=\frac{5}{12}$ , we can plug them in Eqn. (1) and find our constant of proportionality $a$ as follow:
