= -4/2 Step-by-step explanation: xp=x1 +k (x2-x1) = -3+1/3 (2- -3) = -3 + 1/3 (5/1) = -3 + 5/3 = -9/3 +5/3 = -4/2 Sorry, it doesn't look the best:)
The provided number is 0.555, which can also be expressed as

In examining the digits post-decimal, each subsequent digit decreases to 1/10 of the preceding one.
Thus, the assertion that "the value of the 5 in the thousands place is ten times as great as the 5 in the hundredth place" is incorrect.
The correct choice is option D. The given equations are:...[1]...[2] Multiply equation [1] by 5 on both sides; we have...[3]. By using the elimination method, we can add equations [2] and [3] to eliminate y and determine x, resulting in... Dividing both sides by 13 yields x = 3. Substituting x back into equation [1] results in 2(3) - y = -4, which simplifies to 6 - y = -4. After subtracting 6 from both sides, we find -y = -10. Dividing through by -1 gives y = 10. Hence, the solution is (3, 10). Consequently, a valid equation that can replace 3x + 5y = 59 in the original set while still yielding the same result is 13x = 39.
