Answer:

x=-5 and y= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To eliminate x, add up both equations

9y= 36

divide both sides by 9

y=36/9

y= 8

To eliminate y, multiply the first equation by 8

-16x + 8y = 112

2x+ 8y= 22

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1

-18x = 90

Divide both sides by -18

x= 90/-18

x= -5

Find the unit rate for each person's typing test in words per second 0.5 words/second is the unit rate for James. 3 words/second is the unit rate for Shanya words/second is the unit rate for Tristan, words/second is the unit rate for Ebony, So. is the fastest typist​

Answers

Unit rates is the rate of a quantity in comparison to 1 i.e. unit.

Based on the given parameters, Shanya is the fastest typist

From the question, the unit rates are given as:

James: 0.5 words per secondShanya = 3 words per seconds

The unit rates of Tristan and Ebony are not given.

So, we compare the rates of James and Shanya

3 words in a second is greater than 0.5 words in a second.

Hence, Shanya is the fastest typist

LAST ATTEMPT IM MARKING AS BRAINLIEST!! (Graph the image of the figure using the dilation given)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]I(-2,0) \to\\ I \ ' \ (-0.5,0)\\\\J(3,2) \to\\ J \ ' \ (0.75,0.5)\\\\K(1,-1) \to\\ K \ ' \ (0.25,-0.25)\\\\[/tex]

==================================================

Explanation:

For each point, multiply each x,y coordinate by 0.25 (the scale factor) to dilate the preimage to the image. This will shrink the image because the positive scale factor is less than 1.

So for instance, point J(3,2) will have this scratch work

3*(0.25) = 0.752*(0.25) = 0.5

meaning J(3,2) moves to J ' (0.75, 0.5)

----------

Side notes:

0.25 = 1/40.5 = 2/4 = 1/20.75 = 3/4this trick only works if the center of dilation is the origin

-x+2y=-1
5x-10y=6

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

L1 -x + 2y = -1

L2 5x - 10y = 6

-x + 2y = - 1 multiply by -1

x - 2y = 1 multiply by 5

5x - 10y = 5 is similar that 5x - 10y = 6

The system has no solution

Solve the following system of equations by elimination​

Answers

Answer:

y = -6

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 2y = -13

-x - 2y = 11

Sum the equations:

-x -x = -2x

+2y - 2y = 0

-13 + 11 = -2

then

-2x = -2

x = -2/-2

x = 1

from the first eq.

-x + 2y = -13

-1 + 2y = -13

2y = -13 + 1

2y = -12

y = -12/2

y = -6

check:

from the second eq.

-x -2y = 11

-1 -(2*-6) = 11

-1 -(-12) = 11

-1 + 12 = 11

Answers

Answer:

-11/14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope =(y2-y1)/ (x2 - x1)

So slope

= (7 - (-4)/ -7-7)

= -11/14.

A shipping container will be used to transport several 60-kilogram crates across the country by rail. The greatest weight that can be loaded into the container is 26000 kilograms. Other shipments weighing 13200 kilograms have already been loaded into the container. What is the greatest number of 60-kilogram crates that can be loaded into the shipping container?

Answers

Answer:

213 crates

Step-by-step explanation:

There is enough space for 26000 kg - 13200 kg = 12800 kg. Divide this by 60 and you get 213 and 1/3. You cannot put 1/3 of a crate, so it is 213 crates.

What do you know about these two lines?

y = 6x - 1
y = -6x - 4

A: The lines are parallel because their slopes are the same.
B: The lines are perpendicular because the slopes are opposites reciprocals
C: The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular, they just intersect.

Answers

Answer: Choice C

Explanation:

Refer to the y = mx+b form

m = slopeb = y intercept

The slopes are the only thing we focus on. For the equations y = 6x-1 and y = -6x-4, the slopes are 6 and -6 in that order.

The slopes are not equal, so the lines aren't parallel.

The slopes aren't opposite reciprocals of one another, so they aren't perpendicular either. An example of an opposite reciprocal pairing would be 6 and -1/6. Any pair of nonzero opposite reciprocal slopes always multiply to -1.

Therefore, the two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular, they just intersect.

8% is .08

To find 8% of 25, we use multiplication.

In case you cannot use a calculator or you want to be very quick about this, or just do a simple check... you can actually reverse the number (money, amount, etc) and the percent.

Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with jewelled rims--just the shade to wear in the beautiful vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone.But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim! And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit."Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it."Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled."Della," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on."The magi, as you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents.

Everywhere they are wisest.
