Y = x + 3
2x + y = 9

substitute the first equation into the second equation;
2x + y = 9
2x + x + 3 = 9
3x + 3 = 9

solve for x;
3x + 3 = 9
3x = 9 - 3
3x = 6
x = 2

solve for y, given the value of x;
y = x + 3
y = 2 + 3
y = 5

so the answer is (2, 5).

hope this helps, God bless!

Simone used 2 1/3 kilograms of flour to bake a cake . She used 4/5 kilograms of flour more to bake a second cake. How much flour

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

3.13 kilograms used for the second cake

Step-by-step explanation:

because the fractions have different denominators you have to multiply the denominators together to figure out what to change them too. but instead you can just figure out what the decimal for each is. 1/3 is 0.33, and 4/5 is 0.80. all you do is add these together to get 1.13. so now all you do is add 2+1.13 to get 3.13.

Does anybody have any tips for calculating slopes in Algebra 1???

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The equations are really hard, so if you can find a slope interpreter or something that might be helpful.

I find it easier to just count the up and across.

An investment firm invested in two companies last year. They invested $11,000 in Company A and made a profit of 24% . They inves

Tema [17]

First off, "whatever%" of "anything" is just (whatever/100) * anything

part A)

so... firm A got 11,000 invested, turned a profit of 24%, how much is 24% of 11000? well (24/100) * 11000

firm B got 14,000 invested, and returned 15% in profits, how much is 15% of 14000? (15/100) * 14000

part B)

for the amounts above, we get 2640 and 2100 respectively

so, the total profit "amount" is 2640 + 2100 or 4740

the total investement was 11000+14000 = 25000

if 25000 is the 100%, how much is 4740 in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
25000&100\\
4740&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{25000}{4740}=\cfrac{100}{x}$

solve for "x"
