Let l, t, b represent the numbers of lions, tigers, bears, respectively.
2l +3t +3b = 156 . . . . . . . 156 meals per day are supplied
l +t = 3b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . there are 3 times as many great cats as bears
l +t +b = 68 . . . . . . . . . . . there are a total of 68 animals
_____
The last 2 equations tell you
.. 4b = 68
.. b = 17
Subtracting 3 times the last equation from the first gives
.. -l = -48
There are 48 lions, 3 tigers, and 17 bears.
33 +4x = 513
4x = 480 (x = 480/4: x = 120)
Answer
Step 2 Divide each side by 4
3/15 reduces to 1/5
1/5 = 0.2....0.2 * 100 = 20%
You have to make an equation that i forgot what was called but you just take
x+y=10 and multiply it by -2 so the y’s can cancel out
so you’ll end up with:
-2x-2y= -20
(+) x+2y=14
you’ll get : x = -6
then you plug in -6 for x, solve for y and your coordinates will be
(-6 , 10)
