Solve -5x + 5y = 15 and 3x – 2y=-8 by elimination
If someone can help that’d be brilliant

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x+5y=15(multiply by 2)

3×-2y=-8(multiply by 5)

-10×+10y=30

15×-10y=-40

5x=-10

x=-2

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
