Answer:
x = - 4, y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
- 7x - 2y = 14 → (1)
6x + 6y = 18 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by 3 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term
- 21x - 6y = 42 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
- 15x = 60 ( divide both sides by 15 )
x = - 4
Substitute x = - 4 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y
Substituting into (2)
6(- 4) + 6y = 18
- 24 + 6y = 18 ( add 24 to both sides )
6y = 42 ( divide both sides by 6 )
y = 7
Answer:
Is below.
Step-by-step explanation:
nuMBER OF BAGELS = 16 * 1 1/2 = 24.
Number of servings of cheese = 16*2 = 32
= 32/4 = 8 containers.
<u>Answer</u>
14 4/9
<u>Turn 9 2/3 into an Improper Fraction</u>
Multiply 9*3 and get 27. Now add 2 and get 29 (Denominator stays the same)
9 2/3 = 29/3
<u>Turn 4 7/9 into an Improper Fraction</u>
Multiply 4*9 and get 36. Now add 7 and get 43 (Denominator stays the same)
4 7/9 = 43/9
<u>Add</u>
29/3 + 43/9 = 130/9
<u>Turn 130/9 into a Mixed Number (Divide)</u>
130/9 = 14 4/9

This is because 2/3 times 3 equals 2.
