It is incorrect because when you times a negative by a positive. It is a negative number.
Answer:
x = -1, PR = 38.
Step-by-step explanation:
As Q is the midpoint of PR
PQ = QR
6x + 25 = 16 - 3x
9x = -9
x = -1.
PR
= 6x + 25 + 16 - 3x
= 6(-1) + 25 + 16 - 3(-1)
= -6 + 25 + 16 + 3
= 38.
4x=-3y+17 becomes 4x+3y=17
4x+3y=17
3x-4y=-6
alrighty
elimination
muliply first equation by 4 and 2nd by 3 and add them
16x+12y=68
9x-12y=-18
add them
25x+0y=50
25x=50
idivide both sides by 25
x=2
sub back
3x-4y=-6
3(2)-4y=-6
6-4y=-6
-4y=-12
y=3
(x,y)
(2,3)

6 pachages
each pcage has 30
6*30=180 total
17 left over
how many used
used=total-left over
used=180-17
used=163
16. xy is 2 digit number
multiplules of 10 (whole multipules) always end with 0 so y=0
and has 3 as one of its factors
factors of 3 is 3,6,9,12
30,60,90 is answer
17.
30 in 9 parks
30 times 9
30=10 times 3
3*10*9
group the 3 and 9
10*(3*9)
3*9=27
10*(27)
270
15. 163
16. 30,60,90
17. see above, 270
