4- 20
I created an equation for this one:
4x+x=100
- 4x= four times the amount of the other number
- x= the number
- combine like terms
5x=100
x=20
5. One pretzel costs $3
Create an equation:
Mulitply 2s+p=7 by -2 so you can use elimination.
Combine equations
p=3
<span>x + 3y = 9
-x + y = -1
X = 3
Y = 2
</span>
They are not equivalent expression because 3^2 is 9 since 3*3 is 9 but 3*2 is 6, so the expressions are not equivalent. <span />
