For this, I'll be using the substitution method. Since y = 1/3x - 6, replace the y variable in the first equation with 1/3x - 6 and solve for x:

x+3(\frac{1}{3}x-6)=-12\\ x+x-18=-12\\ 2x-18=-12\\ 2x=6\\ x=3

Now that we have the value of x, plug it into either equation to solve for y:

3+3y=-12\\ 3y=-15\\ y=-5\\ \\ y=\frac{1}{3}*3-6\\ y=1-6\\ y=-5

<h3><u>In short, the solution to this equation is (3,-5).</u></h3>

If frank has 24 pennies 62 nickles 55 dimes 16 quarters and 19 fifty cent pieces how much money does he have
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Frank has $22.34.

Step-by-step explanation:

24 pennies - 0.01 x 24 = 0.24

62 nickels - 0.05 x 62 = 3.10

55 dimes - 0.10 x 55 = 5.50

16 quarters - 0.25 x 16 = 4.00

19 half dollar (50cent) - 0.50 x 19 = 9.50

0.24 + 3.10 + 5.50 + 4.00 + 9.50 = 22.34
