Create a system of equations
x + y = 123
5x + y = 343

I use substitution
y = 123 - x
5x + 123 - x = 343
4x + 123 = 343
4x = 220
x = 55

Plug in
x + y = 123
55 + y = 123
y = 68

Check
5x + y = 343
5(55) + 68 = 343
275 + 68 = 343
343 = 343

NeX [460]

Answer:

R300

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve:

Multiply 25 by 6 to represent the earnings of a shift.
Multiply the shift earnings by 2 to represent how much he earned over the weekend.

Multiply 25 by 6:

$25 \times 6 = 150$

Multiply 150 by 2:

$150 \times 2 = 300$

Question 15 of 24

deff fn [24]

Answer: B. m=-23 and -23=m. *The answer should be the negative sign.*

Step-by-step explanation:

addition property of equality is adding the same number to both sides of an equation does not change the equation.

a+c=b+c

add by 10 both sides of equation.

m-10+10=-33+10

simplify.

33-10=23

23+10=33

33-23=10

m=-23

It changes positive to negative.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!
