Hi there!
x - 3y = 9
x = 9 + 3y
-4x + y = 8
-4(9+3y) + y = 8
-36 - 12y + y = 8
-36 - 11y = 8
-11y = 44
-y = 4
y = -4
x - 3y = 9
x - 3(-4) = 9
x + 12 = 9
x = 21
So, your answers are y = -4 and x = 21.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
a) He needs to consume 600 kcal from protein.
b) 22 kcal come from fat.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Lee needs to consume 2400 kcal each day and 25% of this income should come from protein.
We are going to use percentages to solve this problem, to find out how many kcal from protein he should consume we need to multiply 2400 by .25.
2400 (.25) = 600
Lee needs to consume 600 kcal from protein.
b) A cup of chili contains 220 kcal If 15% of kcal come from fat how many kcal come from fat?
We are going to solve this in a similar way.
We should multiply the total amount of kcal by .15 which is the amount of fat calories.
220 (.15) = 33
33 kcal come from fat.
Make the fractions improper to multiply.2 1/5 becomes 11/5 and 1 3/4 becomes 7/4. multiply the numerators then multiply the denominators. you get 77/20, which is simplest form. don't let teachers feed you that bs about it having to be a mixed number. an improper fraction is way more useful.

You can work out the diagonal by using Pythagoras theorem. (a^2 = b^2 + c^2)
As it is a square, all 4 sides are the same so it would be:
11.2^2 + 11.2^2 = diagonal^2
250.88 = diagonal^2
Square root both sides to get what the diagonal is equal to.
diagonal is 15.8 cm
