Answer: the price of 1 yard of chicken wire is $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one yard of landscaping fabric.

Let y represent the cost of one yard of chicken wire.

Charlotte pays $24 for 3 yards of landscaping fabric and 6 yards of chicken wire. This means that

3x + 6y = 24 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Kami pays $30 for 6 yards of landscaping fabric and 3 yards of chicken wire. This means that

6x + 3y = 30 - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

18x + 36y = 144

18x + 9y = 90

Subtracting

27y = 54

y = 54/27 = 2

Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes

3x + 6×2 = 24

3x = 24 - 12 = 12

x = 12/3 = 4

Answer:

$2 per yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price per yard of landscaping fabric be f and the price of chicken wire per yard be c.

3f + 6c = 24     Multiply this equation by  - 2:

-6f - 12c = -48 Also:

6f + 3c = 30

Adding the last 2 equations:

-9c = -18

c = 2.

Any one that knows this please help thanks!

Replace the x with 9, and the y with 1.

(x · y²)/-5 becomes (9 · 1²)/-5

1² is just 1, so you're doing 9 × 1 (which is = 9) over -5.

Therefore, your final answer is -9/5.

You buy a used car for $6500. The monthly cost of owning the car (including insurance, fuel, maintenance, and taxes) averages $3
pashok25 [27]
Y = 350x + 6500

where x = the number of months you own the car and y = the total cost of buying and owning the car.

This is true because each month, it costs 350, so finding the monthly cost would be multiplying 350 by the number of months, or x.  The + 6500 is there because in addition to the monthly cost, the original price was $6500.

aalyn [17]

Answer: There are 4 tubes of paint she purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount spend on tubes of paint and brushes for an art project = $16

Cost of each tube of paint = $3

Cost of each brush = $0.50

Let the price of tube of paint be 'x'.

Let the price of brush be '2x'.

So, According to question, it becomes,

3x+0.50\times 2x=16\\\\3x+x=16\\\\4x=16x\\\\x=\dfrac{16}{4}\\\\x=4

Hence, there are 4 tubes of paint she purchased.
