Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If Quan had 15 and Kaden had 3 times as much, then Kaden had 15(3) = 45. If he spent 10 then he had 35 left. The amount of money Quan had after his mom gave him some was 4/5 the amount of Kaden's 35 (let x = the amount of money Quan has after his mom gives him some):
35 divides by the 5 in the denominator 7 times, and 7 times 4 is 28. That's how you get your 28 in part a.
For part b., he started with 15 and ended with 28, so his mom gave him 28-15=13. That's how you get the 13.
Answer:
no because there are more than 1 X inputs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1, y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
15x + 3y = 9 (1)
10x + 7y = -4 (2)
3 × (2) - 2 × (1)
3 × (2)
30x + 21y = -12 (3)
2 × (1)
30x + 6y = 18 (4)
(3) - (4)
15y = -30
y = -30 / 15
y = -2
sub y = -2 into (1)
15x + 3y = 9
15x + (3 × -2) = 9
15x - 6 = 9
15x = 9 + 6
15x = 15
x = 15 / 15
x = 1
