Is this ordered pair a solution to the system of linear equations? Yes or no and why or why not?

Yes, it is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

9x+7y=-11

-2x-5y=30

substitute 5 for x and -8 for y and test:

9(5)+7(-8)=-11

45-56=-11 ,  this is true

-2(5)-5(-8)=30

-10+40=30 , this is true also

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
