X+y=425
y=2x-40

Use substitution.
x+(2x-40)=425
3x-40=425
3x= 465
x=155

Plug in x value
y= 2(155)-40
y= 310-40
y= 270

Final answer: Anita-270, Joelle-155

X-(9x-10)+11=12x+3(-2x+ 1/3)
morpeh [17]
X - (9x - 10) + 11 = 12x + 3(-2x + \frac{1}{3} ) equals x = \frac{10}{7} .

First, simplify brackets. / Your problem should look like: x - 9x + 10 + 11 = 12x + 3(-2x + \frac{1}{3} ). 
Second, simplify x - 9x + 10 + 11 to -8x + 10 + 11. / Your problem should look like: -8x + 10 + 11 = 12x + 3(-2x + \frac{1}{3} ).
Third, simplify -8x + 10 + 11 to -8x + 21. / Your problem should look like: -8x + 21 = 12x + 3(-2x + \frac{1}{3} ).
Fourth, expand. / Your problem should look like: -8x + 21 = 12x - 6x + 1.
Fifth, simplify 12x - 6x + 1 to 6x + 1./ Your problem should look like: -8x + 21 = 6x + 1.
Sixth, add 8x to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 21 = 6x + 1 + 8x.
Seventh, simplify 6x + 1 + 8x to 14x + 1. / Your problem should look like: 21 = 14x + 1.
Eighth, subtract 1 from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 21 - 1 = 14x.
Ninth, simplify 21 - 1 to 20. / Your problem should look like: 20 = 14x.
Tenth, divide both sides by 14. / Your problem should look like: \frac{20}{14} = x.
Eleventh, simplify \frac{20}{14} to \frac{ 10}{7} . / Your problem should look like: \frac{10}{7} = x.
Twelfth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: x = \frac{10}{7} which is your answer.

Use a system of linear equations with two variables and two equations to solve.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

passed: 164

failed: 41

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the failed students be x, then the passed students will be 4x.

x + 4x = 205

x = 205/5 = 41

4x = 4*41 = 164
