First, we need to get rid of the denominator. to do so, we will simply multiply all terms by 12 (which is the result of 3*4).
(3x/4)(12)+(2/3)(12)=(x/3)(12)
9x + 8 = 4x
then we will separate the variable in one side and solve to get its value
9x-4x = -8
5x = -8
x = -8/5
Answer: 2222
Step-by-step explanation: 2000+200+20+2 = 2222
I you use 1 gallon cost is 0.08(1) + 5 = 5.08
If 2 0.08(2) + 5 = 5.16 etc Increase is 0.08
For every extra 1 gallon the water increase is $0.08
Answer: (8,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to get a x or y by itself.
I choosed to get y by itself since it would be faster.
-2x + y = -8 (first get -2x to the other side so add 2x)
y = -8 + 2x (then you want to insert that to the other equation)
-x + 4( -8 +2x) = 24 -> -x -32 + 8x = 24 -> 7x -32 = 24
(add 32 to the other side)
7x = 56 (divide 7 to 56 to get x) x = 8
now insert into the other equation
-2( 8 ) + y = -8 -> -16 + y = -8 ( move -16 to the other side, so add 16)
then you get your answer, y= 8
