Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to use your information to set up a proportion. (put your parts over the wholes and a variable in the blank spot.
<u>part </u> <u> part</u>
whole whole
<u>2 </u> <u>6</u>
x 150
Now you use the butterfly method, cross multiply the numerator and denominator and then divide that answer by the remaining numerator or denominator. This will give you the missing value for your variable.
150 x 2 = 300 300 ÷ 6 = 50

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations:
2x + 3y = 15
X + 3y = 0
What is x?
2x + 3y = 15
X + 3y = 0 subtract the bottom equation fron the top one
2x - x + 3y - 3y = 15 - 0 see how the 3y - 3y equates to zero
2x - x = 15
x = 15 Now for extra credit what is y?
X + 3y = 0
15 + 3y = 0
15 - 15 + 3y = 0 - 15
3y = -15
3y/3 = -15/3
y = -5
-15
-5
0
5
15
