That’s the correct answer
Answer:(a=5,b=3)
7a-3b = 26--------(1)
a + 2b =11---------(2)
on mutlplying by7 in eq 2
= 7a+14b=77-------(3)
from eq(1) and (3) (on substracting)
7a+14b=77
7a-3b=26
________
=-17b=51
b=51/17
b=3
on putting value of b in eq 1
7a-3b = 26
=7a-9=26
7a=35
a=5

The expression 15t – 2t not equivalent to 2t – 15t because the negative sign in 15t – 2t belongs to the term 2t.
Solution:
Given expressions are 15t – 2t and 2t – 15t.
To determine 15t – 2t is equivalent to 2t – 15t or not.
Substitute t = 2 in above two expressions.
15t – 2t = 15(2) – 2(2)
= 30 – 4
= 26
2t – 15t = 2(2) – 15(2)
= 4 – 30
= –26
The values of the expressions are different when t = 2.
So, 15t – 2t is not equivalent to 2t – 15t.
Hence the expression 15t – 2t not equivalent to 2t – 15t because the negative sign in 15t – 2t belongs to the term 2t.
The answer is:
17*(3/14)
More detailed;
3/14 gives us how many it takes to feed 1 person, then we times the amount it takes to feed one person by 17 (to get 17 people)
