Answer:
Distributive property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do in an equation is to distribute.
In order to solve this, you have to plug in all of the costs of the gifts and add them, which in all equals $36. since jim only has 1/4 of the money he needs to buy the gifts, you need to divide 36 by 4. this gives you 9, so now you know he has 9 dollars.
and to find out how much more money he needs, you can subtract 9 from 36 which represents a fourth of the required money. the answer is 27, that's how much jim needs in order to buy his gifts.
our X is 30 because 3x = 90 and if we divide that by 3 then we are left with 30, I knew it was equal to 90 degrees because of the little red box that symbolizes a 90 degree angle.
So now that we know X = 30 we can plug it in for (2x + 3y)
2(30) + 3y is equal to (60 + 3y) and if we equal that to the other side 3x and plug in for x on that side, we have a new equation of 90 = 60 + 3y so then from here we subtract 60 from both sides and are left with 30 = 3y and finally we divide 3
and our final answer is Y = 10 (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((:
