-2x + 6y = -34
-x + 3y = -17
x = 3y +17
Sub this into 1st eqn
5(3y + 17) + 2y = 21
15y + 85 + 2y =21
17y = -64
y = -3.7647 (to 5 sig. fig.)
y = -3.8 (to nearest tenth)
Sub y = -3.7647 into 2nd eqn
x = 3(-3.7647) +17
x = 5.7 (to nearest tenth)
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
So!
If the d (discriminant)
d > 0 Then 2 solutions
d = 0 Then 1 solution
d < 0 Then none
36 > 0 so 2 solutions

Answer: 3
Answer:
This question seems to be asking for the work, so I put it below.
Anyhow, Marla had 3.5 candies, and Ron had 10.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 3x - 7 (lets set this as "a") { a = 3x - 7}
x + 7 = 3x -7 + 7
x + 7 = 3x
( x + 7 ) / 3 = 3/3x
( x + 7 ) / 3 = x = *(same as "a") {a}
( x + 7 ) / 3 = 3x - 7
( x + 7 ) / 3 * 3 = ( 3x - 7 ) * 3
x + 7 = 9x - 21
x - x + 7 = 9x - x - 21
7 = 8x - 21
7 + 21 = 8x - 21 + 21
28 = 8x
28 / 8 = 8/8x
3.5 = x
We can plug this back into the original equation and find that it is correct because:
x = 3x - 7
x = 3.5 =====
3.5 = 3( 3.5 ) - 7
3.5 = 10.5 - 7
3.5 = 3.5
12-9=3
12-3=9
You then can add any of the numbers to get 12, which is how they are related
