Answer:

Ratio of Non Fiction : Fiction books = 7 : 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of books checked out =  52

Number of fiction books checked out = 24

So, number of non fiction books =  Total books -  number of fiction books

Or, number of non fiction = 52 - 24   =  28  books

Now, ratio of Non Fiction : Fiction books = 28 : 24

Solving the ratio term in its lowest form, we get

The Ratio of Non Fiction : Fiction books = 7  : 6

Solve system of equation algebraically <br> y = 2x - 3<br> x + y = 18
natima [27]

Answer:

x = 7

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system;

y = 2x - 3

x + y = 18

1. Approach

The easiest way to solve this system of equations is to solve the second equation for the variable (y). Then add the systems, use algebra to solve for the value of (x), then substitute that value back into one of the original equations to solve for the value of (y). Another name for the method in use is the method of elimination, this is when a [erspm manipulates one of the equations in a system of the equation such that when they add the equations, one of the variables eliminatates. Thus, they can solve for the other variable and the backsolve for the value of the unknown variable.

2. Solve one of the equations for a variable

Manipulate the system such that each equation is solved for the same variable,

x + y = 18

Inverse operations,

x + y = 18

-18        -18

x + y - 18 = 0

   -y         -y

x - 18 = -y

3. Use elimination

Now substitute this back into the original system,

y = 2x - 3

-y = x - 18

Add the systems,

y = 2x - 3

-y = x - 18

_________

0 = 3x - 21

Inverse operations,

0 = 3x - 21

+21       +21

21 = 3x

/3    /3

7 = x

4. Find the value of the unknown variable

Backsovle to find the value of (y),

x + y = 18

Substitute,

7 + y = 18

Inverse operations,

7 + y = 18

-7        -7

y = 11
