3x - 2y = 16 and x - 2y = 4 (any method <3)​

If Im supposed to use the substituiton method, please notify me!

1) 3x-2y=16

Divide each term  by 3 and simplify

divide each term in 3x=16 +2y by 3

3x/3=16/3+2y/3

Cancel the common factor of 3

3x/3(cross this fraction out)=16/3+2y/3

divide x by 1

x=16/3+2y/3

2) x-2y=4

Solve for x

1) Add 2y to both sides.

Solve for y

1) Subtract x from both sides.

2) Divide both sides by -2.

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.

answer: a.

step-by-step explanation: the answer is a. because, you need to converge the fractions to find a solution.
