Answer:
0.625 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
since the box weighs 5 ounces you subtract 5 from the total and divide 48 by 30
<h2>x = 1/4</h2><h2>y = -2</h2><h2>______________</h2>
<h2>Known : </h2>
y = -8x
4x - y = 3
<h2>Asked: </h2>
Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations ?
<h2>Answered:</h2>
<h3>Substitution y</h3>
4x - y = 3
4x - (-8x) = 3
4x + 8x = 3
12x = 3
x = 3/12
x = 1/4
<h3>
Substitution x</h3>
4x - y = 3
4(1/4) - y = 3
4/4 - y = 3
1 - y = 3
-y = 3 - 1
-y = 2
y = -2
I haven’t done math in forever, do you want us to simplify it? Bc it would be 2x+8=-16=4x+6 but I’m not sure
X + y = 120000
0.15x - 0.10y = 5500
Multiply both sides of bottom by 100 to remove decimals
x + y = 120000
15x - 10y = 550000
Multiply both sides of top by 10
10x + 10y = 1200000
15x - 10y = 550000
Add the two
25x = 1750000
x = 70000
He paid $70,000 for the property that made a profit, and paid $50,000 for the property that lost value.
