Hello there! I can help you! So there is one blue counter added to two green counters. To solve this problem, we can write and solve an equation. Set it up like this:

12 + 1x = 8 + 2x

We do this, because there are already some of each color in the bag. 1x makes one counter each and 2x is two counters for every blue counter in the bag. Let's solve it. Subtract 1x from each side. 1x - 1x cancels out. 2x - 1x is 1x or just simply x. That simplifies to 12 = 8 + x. Subtract 8 from each side to get the variable by itself. 8 - 8 cancels out. 12 - 8 is 4. That leaves 4 = x. Nothing else needs to be done. Let's plug the value in and see if it works. 1 * 4 is 4. 12 + 4 is 16. 2 * 4 is 8. 8 + 8 is 16. 16 = 16. There. x = 4. 4 blue counters and 8 green counters were added to the bag.

10. 10x + 5y = 15<br> y=2x-3
Ivan

Answer:

(i think) 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you replace y with the equation y=2x-3, you get 5(2x - 3)

if you distribute this, it equals 10x - 15

combining like terms 10x + 10x - 15=15 will turn into 20x - 15 = 15

if you add 15 to both sides, -15 will cancel and 15 will turn into 30

20x = 30

divide both sides by 20 which will lead to x=1.5

The difference in age between Brita and her daughter Eva is 30 years. The sum or their ages 118. How old is Eva?
Alona [7]

Answer:

Eva's age is 44 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> Brita's age

y ----> Eva's age

we know that

The sum or their ages 118

so

x+y=118 ----> equation A

The difference in age between Brita and her daughter Eva is 30 years

so

x-y=30 ----> equation B

Solve the system by elimination

Adds equation A and equation B

x+y=118\\x-y=30\\---------\\x+x=118+30\\2x=148\\x=74

<em>Find the value of y</em>

substitute the value of x in any equation

74+y=118\\y=118-74\\y=44

therefore

Eva's age is 44 years
