Answer:
y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=42. We know that x plus y equals 42.
x=2y . We also know that x equals twice y.
2y+y=42. Since we know that x=2y, we're going to replace x with 2y from the original equation, simplified would be 3y=42.
y=14. 3y=42 simplified is y=14, this is because we divided both sides by 3 (since 3 and 42 are both divisible by 3) (btw divisible by 3 simply means that it can be divided by 3)
x+14=42. Now that we know what y equals, let's replace y with 14 from the original equation.
x=28. Now that we know that x=28 and y=14, we know that y is always x/2.
When x=-8, we divide it by 2 and get, -4.
Not absolutely positive as this was all mental math, but hope this helps! :)
Answer:
1 9/16 square feet or 1.5625 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle is Length x Width
First convert 2 1/2 into a number that is just a fraction.
2 = 4/2 so 4/2 + 1/2 = 5/2
Now you can multiply the two fractions to find the area.
area = 5 5 25
-- x -- = -----
8 2 16
To simplify this, you know 16/16 = 1 so subtract 16 from the numerator which leaves 9/16
Your answer will be 1 and 9/16
