1 1/16 is the answer!! Hope this helps! <3 x
To solve this system of equations, since y is already isolated in both equations, you can set the expressions to equal each other to solve for x:
-x + 2 = - 5x - 6
-x + 5x = -6 - 2
4x = -8
x = -2
Now that we have x, we can substitute it into one of the equations to find y:
y = -(-2) + 2
y = 2 + 2
y = 4
The last step is to substitute both values into both equations to see if they are correct:
4 = -(-2) + 2 --> 4 = 2 + 2 <--True
4 = -5(-2) - 6 --> 4 = 10 - 6 <--True
Answer:
x = -2
y = 4
Answer:n=-83/60 or -1.383
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of the free throws completed to attempted free throws is given to be 4:7. This ratio should be equal to the ratio of the next case. Let x be the number of free throws attempted. The proportion takes a form of,
(4 completed / 7 attempted) = (12 completed / x attempted)
Solving for x gives x = 21. Thus, the answer is letter c. which is the second among the choices.
