Answer:
y = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug 4 in for x.
3 + 2(4) = y
Multiply.
3 + 8 = y
Simplify.
11 = y
To solve this you can multiply the second equation by to get
3x+6y =18
Then you can subtract it by the first equation to get
7y= 14
And get y= 2
Then you plug in y to one of the equations to find that x=2
A) the equation accuretly models this scenario because Emanuel has a total of 48 cards. He bought some (X) and his aunt gave him 18. In order to find the number of cards he bought you set the number of cards he bought and the number of cards he got from his aunt equal to the number of cards he has.
B) 48= X + 18
Subtract 18 over
30=X
He bought 30 cards from the store.
48+ 30+18

(3/4)x+(3/2)x=9/4
(3/4)x+(3.2/2.2)x=9/4
(3/4)x+(6/4)x=9/4
3x+6x=9
9x=9
x=1
