Okay, so I don't know if you guys have a special way (i.e. cross multiplication or something) but I would do this.
If 2 groomers can brush 8 horses in 3 hours, how many can one groomer brush in 3 hours? Just cut your horses in half and you get 4. In 3hours, one groomer can brush 4 horses. But how many can 3 groomers do in 3 hours? To get that, just multiply 3 (your number of groomers) by 4 (how many horses one groomer can do), and you get 12 (the number of horses your groomer can groom in 3 hours. So there you go, the answer is 3. It'll take three groomers 3 hours to brush 12 horses.

The first three steps in determining the solution set of the system of equations algebraically are shown.
jolli1 [7]
Since both are equivalent to y, the equations must be equivalent.
x^2-x-3= -3x+5
x^2+2x-8=0

(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=-4, x=2

Plug the values of x in to either equation
y=-3(-4)+5
y= 12+5
y=17

y= -3(2)+5
y=-6+5
y=-1

Final answer: (-4,17) and (2,-1)
