$2.50+3x=$9.25, if you need to work it out, then you do $9.25-$2.50. You take your answer and divide by three... whatever your solution is, equals X. There you go!
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 60% out of 100
Expressed mathematically:
= (60/100) x 100
= 60
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b
So if you start with 9x - 7y = -7, the first thing you need to do is move the 9x to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides.
9x - 7y = -7
-9x -9x
Now you have -7y = -9x -7
For the equation to be in slope intercept form now you should divide every term by the number in front of your y. In this case divide every term by -7
-<u>7y</u> = <u>-9x</u> <u>-7</u>
-7 -7 -7
That leaves you with: y = 9x/7 + 1
X = 250 mg tabs
y = 500 mg tabs
2200x + 1800y = 39200....multiply by -1
2200x + 2200y = 44000
--------------------------------
-2200x - 1800y = - 39200 (result of multiplying by -1)
2200x + 2200y = 44000
--------------------------------add
400y = 4800
y = 4800/400
y = 12...... the 500 mg tabs (y) costs $ 12 per bottle
2200x + 2200y = 44000
2200x + 2200(12) = 44000
2200x + 26400 = 44000
2200x = 44000 - 26400
2200x = 17600
x = 17600/2200
x = 8 <== the 250 mg tabs (x) costs $ 8 per bottle
