X+2y=3 x-y=6 x=? y=?

2 answers:

3 0

Set each equation equal to either x or y.

I’ll do x.

x+2y-2y = 3-2y
(Simplify) x = 3-2y

x-y+y = 6+y
(Simplify) x = 6+y

(Set them equal to each other)
3-2y = 6+y

3-2y-6 = 6+y+2y

-3 = 3y

y = -1
x =5

Answer:

x=5

y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=3

x-y=6

x+2y=3

x=6+y

(6+y)+2y=3

x=6+y

6+y+2y=3

x=6+y

6+3y=3

x=6+y

3y=3-6

x=6+y

3y=-3

x=6+y

y=-3/3

x=6+y

y=-1

x=6-1

y=-1

x=5

Natalie added 20 pieces of candy to a bowl. Two days later, half of the candy in the bowl is gone. If there are 14 pieces left i

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

8 pieces of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the original amount of candy in the bowl to be $x$ .

It says that 20 pieces of candy were added, therefore there are $x+20$ pieces of candy in the bowl.

Half of the candy is gone, therefore $\frac{x+20}{2}$ pieces of candy are left in the bowl.

After half of the candy is gone, there are 14 pieces left, so we can say that $\frac{x+20}{2} =14$

Solve for $x$ :

$x+20 = 28$

$x=8$
