Answer: You would swap the ineqaulity

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number reverses the inequality. This means < changes to >, and vice versa. For example, given that 5 < 8 we can multiply both sides by 6 to obtain 30 < 48 which is still true.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, determine the amount it takes- in this case, it's 82.5 miles. To find out the gallons he'll need to use, divide it by 30 to get 2.75 gallons. 3.05 times 2.75 is 8.3875, rounding to $8.39.

X + y = 3<br> 3x + 4y = 3<br> using substitution how would you get x and y?
laila [671]

Answer:

The solution is: (x, y) = (9, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Solve one of the equations for either x = or y = . We will solve second equation for y.

x+y=3

y=3-x

Step 2: Substitute the solution from step 1 into the second equation.

3x+4(3-x)=5

Step 3: Solve this new equation.

3x+4(3-x)=5

3x+12-4x=3

-x+12=3

-x=3-12

x=9

Step 4: Solve for the second variable

y=3-x

y=3-9

y=-7

The solution is: (x, y) = (9, -7)
