Answer:
x = 25.35 (or 2129/84) and y = 4334.04 (or 121353/28)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations are set up and ready to go with substitution. Simply just plug in the first equation to the second equation as both are equal to y.
Step 1: Replace y in <em>y = 87x + 2129 </em>with <em>171x</em>
171x = 87x + 2129
Step 2: Subtract 87 x on both sides
84x = 2129
Step 3: Divide both sides by 84 to get x
x = 2129/84 or 25.35 (rounded)
To get y, simply plug in x into one of the 2 original equations. In this case, I will use the first equation:
y = 171 (25.35)
y = 121353/28 or 4334.04 (rounded)
You can check your work by plugging both solutions into the calculator and see if they equal each other. The values for these answers are solely based on the equations, so if you write the <em>equations </em>wrong themselves, then that means you have the values wrong as well.

Answer:
The answer is 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First you must the least common denominator so that you can add the two fractions. The least common denominator between 3/4 and 3/8, would be 8.
To get 3/4 to the least common denominator, you have to multiply top and bottom by 2. The product of this will be 6/8.
Next you add the two fractions: 6/8 + 3/8 = 9/8
Simplify your improper fraction to get on and 1 eighths or in number form 1 1/8
After this you must subtract how much she gave away so you can use your improper fraction to make it easier and subtract five eighths from nine eighths: 9/8 - 5/8 = 4/8
So, Luna has four eighths of a glass left but first you must simplify your answer. both 4 and 8 divide by 4 to get 1/2.
So Luna's glass only has 1/2 in the cup.
Make sure you be optimistic and see it as half full, instead of the pessimistic view of half empty. Remember to stay positive and share good vibes. Hope this answer helps you.
