2(6y - 5) - 3y = 2
12y - 10 - 3y = 2
9y - 10 = 2
9y = 12
y = 4/3, or 1 1/3
2x - 3(4/3) = 2
2x - 12/3 = 2
2x - 4 = 2
2x = 6
x = 3
Answer
so there are 7 singing acts and 5 comedy acts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x= number of singing acts.
Let y= number of comedy acts.
We will take x+y=12 as our first equation, as there are 12 shows in total. We will take 5x+3y=50 as our second equation as there are 50 total minutes, and singing acts are 5 mins and comedy acts are 3 mins.
We solve x+y=12
Y=-x+12
We know y=-x+12, so we will substitute that for the y in the second equation.
1. Substitute 5x+3(-x+12)=50
2. Distribute 5x-3x+36=50
3. Solve 2x+36=50
2x=14
X=7
Now that we have found x, we will find y by substitute the x in 5x+3y=50 with the value, 7, that we found for x.
5(7)+3y=50
35+3y=50
3y=15
Y=5

3. x = 14 degrees
4. x = 17.5 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
SO, The first question:
6x - 21 = 105
6x = 105 -21
6x = 84
x = 14
SO, The second question:
55 + 85 = 8x
140 = 8x
17.5 = x
