Answer:
-18
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first one it’s subtraction property of equality
A) x + 4y = -15
B) -2x -8y = 30
Multiplying A) by 2
A) 2x + 8y = -30
This has NO solution because A) and B) are actually the same equation.
Equation B = Equation A times minus 2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
w + g = 52
w = 4g - 3
(4g - 3) + g = 52
5g - 3 = 52
5g = 52 + 3
5g = 55
g = 55/5
g = 11....there are 11 green marbles
w + g = 52
w + 11 = 52
w = 52 - 11
w = 41 <=== there are 41 white marbles
