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

This statement may not be true because if 3 more people voted for pop, then that's 3 less votes for the other choices, and 1 or maybe 2 of those votes may have come from water, meaning pop would then be the most popular.

Maurinko [17]
$27

2.65 x 2 (since he has to go both to and from work each day) = $5.30
Add the daily cost of the water bottle (1.45) to make his total cost for one day, which is 6.75
Multiply this number by 4 (because he goes 4 days a week) to get $27 for one week.
