- If the number after the decimal is 5+ you round up .. if its 4 and below you round down
Answer:
t=2
j=1
Step-by-step explanation:
3 tacos and a juice is $7
3t+j=7
4 tacos and 2 juices is $10
4t+2j=10
We have a simultaneous equation. It can be solved either by substitution method or Elimination method. For the purpose of this question, the elimination method will be used
3t+j=7 Equation 1
4t+2j=10 Equation 2
To eliminate j, we multiply Equation 1 by 2, the coefficient of j in equation 2, so that in both equations, j can have the same coefficient.
2(3t+j=7)
6t+2j=14 Equation 3
We now have
4t+2j=10 Equation 2
6t+2j=14 Equation 3
We subtract equation 2 from equation 3, to eliminate j
6t-4t=2t
2j-2j=0
14-10=4
We have 2t=4
Divide both sides by 2
2t/2=4/2
t=4/2
t=2
Substitute t for 2 in equation 1, to get j
3t+j=7
3(2)+j=7
6+j=7
j=7-6
j=1
One taco cost $2 while 1 juice cost $2
3 ( 3x + 6 + x ) = 1
Step 1, apply distributive method.
9x + 18 + 3x = 1
Step 2, simplify the following
12x + 18 = 1
Step 3, Change side
12x = -17
Final answer
x = -17/12
<em>The </em><u><em>error/mistake was in step 2</em></u><em> where [ 9x +3x = 12x ]</em>
<em />
<u><em>Recheck the answer</em></u>
3 ( 3x + 6 + x ) = 1
3 ( 3(-17/12) + 6 + -17/12 ) = 1
1 = 1
Hence proved our solution is correct.
