The solution of the equation is
6x - 3 = -51
6x = -51 + 3
6x = -48
—————
X = -8
The solution is -8

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

$6x - 3 = -51?\\To - find-x- collect-like-terms.\\6x=-51+3\\6x =-48\\Divide-both-sides-of-the-equation-by-6\\\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{-48}{6} \\x = -8$

irina1246 [14]

Answer: Statements 1 and 2 shows that the coach blowing the whistle happened first.

Step-by-step explanation: The coach blowing the whistle as the first event can be seen only from statements 1 and 2 only.

From statement 1, "the referee blew the whistle" was followed by "the team ran onto the field."

From statement 2, "before the team ran onto the field" shows clearly that one event took place "BEFORE" the one being reported and the one that occurred before this one was "the referee blew the whistle."

Statement 3 which is "the referee blew the whistle, BUT..." indicates that the whistle was meant to prevent the team from from running onto the field. So if the referee blew the whistle, but the team ran onto the field, it means the whistle blowing was not supposed to make them run onto the field.

Statement 4, which states that "the referee blew the whistle BECAUSE the team ran onto the field" indicates that, the reason for blowing the whistle was because the team ran onto the field which clearly shows that the team ran onto the field first before the referee blew the whistle.

Statement 5, "WHILE the team ran onto the field..." clearly shows that both events took place at the same moment, and so the referee blowing the whistle could not have occurred first.

The number of chicken dish is 131 dishes while the number of lobster dishes is 119 dishes

<h3>How to find the number of each type of dish.</h3>

Let

x = number of chicken dish and
y = number of lobster dish

<h3>How to determine the equations for the linear system</h3>

Since it cost $40 per dish for chicken dish, the total cost of chicken dish is 40x.

Also, since it cost $70 per dish for lobster dish, the total cost of lobster dish is 70y

So, the total cost of dish is T = 40x + 70y

Also, we know that the total cost of dish is $13,570.

So, 40x + 70y = 13570 (1)

Also, there are going to be 250 guest at the dinner and thus 250 dishes.

So, the total number of dishes is x + y = 250

So, x + y = 250 (2)

So, the equations of the linear system are

40x + 70y = 13570 (1)

x + y = 250 (2)

<h3>How to determine the solution for the linear system</h3>

Since

40x + 70y = 13570 (1)

x + y = 250 (2)

From (2), x = 250 - y

Substituting x into (1), we have

40x + 70y = 13570 (1)

40(250 - y) + 70y = 13570 (1)

10000 - 40y + 70y = 13570

30y = 13570 - 10000

30y = 3570

y = 3570/30

y = 119

Substituting y = 119 into x, we have

x = 250 - y

x = 250 - 119

x = 131

Therefore, the number of chicken dish is 131 dishes while the number of lobster dishes is 119 dishes
