Answer:
B (5, 13)
Step-by-step explanation:
9x + 4y = 97
9x + 6y = 123
To solve by elimination, we want to <em>eliminate</em> a variable. To do this, we must make one variable cancel out.
First, we can see that both equations have 9x. To cancel out x, we must make <em>one</em> of the 9x's <em>negative</em>. To do this, multiply <em>each term</em> in the equation by -1.
-1(9x + 6y = 123)
-9x - 6y = -123
This is one of your equations. Set it up with your other given equation.
9x + 4y = 97
-9x - 6y = -123
Imagine this is one equation. Since every term is negative, you will be subtracting each term.
9x + 4y = 97
-9x - 6y = -123
___________
0x -2y = -26
-2y = -26
To isolate y further, divide both sides by -2.
y = 13
Now, to find x, plug y back into one of the original equations.
9x + 4(13) = 97
Multiply.
9x + 52 = 97
Subtract.
9x = 45
Divide.
x = 5
Check your answer by plugging both variables into the equation you have not used yet.
-9(5) - 6(13) = -123
-45 - 78 = -123
-123 = -123
Your answer is correct!

Hope this helps!
The answer would be 7 inches i believe?..
Answer: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply -6 by itself six times, then divide 1 by -6 four times. Multiply the products. Then multiply -6 by itself one more time and you will get 36.
The top question is 1/4. There seems to be a small multiplaction symbol next to the fractions, I'm ignoring that. To get 1/4, I multiplied 2 by itself six times because of the exponent, to get 64. I did the same with the bottom, and recieved 256. 64/256 is 1/4.
Answer:20.571
Step-by-step explanation:
x:y = 21: 24=7:8
8x=7y
y=8x/7
When x=18
y=8*18/7
y=20.571
