The solution to the equations 3x - 4y=12 and 2x+y=8 are x = 4 and y = 0

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have two equations:

3x - 4y=12 and

2x+y=8

Multiplu by 4 on both side in equation  2x+y=8

8x + 4y = 32

Add the equaton 8x + 4y = 32 and 3x - 4y=12

3x - 4y=12

8x + 4y = 32

11x = 44

x = 4

Similarly, we can find the value of y:

y = 0

Thus, the solution to the equations 3x - 4y=12 and 2x+y=8 are x = 4 and y = 0

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Alloy = 12.6 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

( 2/7 ) = ( Nickel /4.9)

Nickel = 1.4 lbs.

Ratio of Copper to Zinc:

( 9/7 ) = ( Copper /4.9)

Copper = 6.3 lbs.

Alloy = Zinc + Nickel + Copper

Alloy = 4.9 lbs. + 1.4 lbs. + 6.3 lbs.

Alloy = 12.6 lbs.
