Answer:
one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x - 2 = 4x + 5 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
- x - 2 = 5 ( add 2 to both sides )
- x = 7 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 7 ← the one solution
Since one equation has a negative y and the other has a positive y, I'm going to use those since they cancel each other out. Before that, the two y's need to be equal to each other.
x+2y=6
x-y=3
Multiply the bottom equation by two so then you have:
x+2y=6
2x-2y=6
The y's now cancel out:
x=6
2x=6
Add them together
3x=12
Divide
x=4.
To find y, plug x into either equation (*don't have to do both, but I will)
(4)+2y=6
(4)-y=3
Subtract four
2y=2
-y=-1
Divide each
2y/2 = 2/2
y=1
-y/-1 = -1/-1
y=1
The answer is:
x=4
y=1
I hope that helps!
6 = 2(x+8) - 5x
⇒ 2x+ 2*8 -5x= 6
⇒ (2x -5x)+ 16= 6
⇒ -3x = 6 -16
⇒ -3x = -10
⇒ x= -10/(-3)
⇒ x= 10/3
⇒ x= 3 1/3
The correct answer is B. 3 1/3~
Answer:
27.9 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
2.70= 15 percent
2.70x2=5.4=30 percent
5.4+2.70=8.1=45 percent
8.1x2=16.2=95 percent
95 percent + 15 percent=18.9
18.9=105 percent
in order to subtract 5 percent we need to find 5 percent by dividing 2.70 by 3
which = .9
18.9+9=27.9
100 percent is 27.9 dollars
