Whats the reason for 8x-5-2x=2x+1-2x

1 answer:

4 0

Your answer is X= -1
you have to move terms first to get this
8x-5=2x+1
then collect like terms and calculate sum
8x-2x=1+5
lastly you divide both sides by 6
X=1
HOPE THIS HELPS! :)

Mike has 21 pounds of tomatoes and 9 pounds of mixed peppers from his garden that he will use to make sals.

Grace [21]

The number of batches of salsa that can be made = x = 6 batches

The number of bat tomato sauce that can be made = y = 3 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the system of equations:

$x+5y=21\\x+y=9$

where variable x represents the number of batches of salsa that can be made and y represents the number of bat tomato sauce that can be made.

We need to solve the systems to find the values of x and y.

Let:

$x+5y=21\,\,\,eq(1)\\x+y=9\,\,\,eq(2)$

Subtract both equations:

$x+5y=21\\x+y=9\\-\,\,\,-\,\,\,\,\,\,-\\------\\4y=12\\y=\frac{12}{4}\\y=3$

So, value of y=3

Putting value of y in eq(2) and finding value of x:

$x+y=9\\x+3=9\\x=9-3\\x=6$

So, value of x=6

The number of batches of salsa that can be made = x = 6 batches

The number of bat tomato sauce that can be made = y = 3 batches
