x + y = 3
x =6 - 4y
Solution
Use the top equation to substitute for x in the second equation.
x = 3 - y
Put this result into the second given equation and solve for y
3 - y = 6 - 4y Add 4y to both sides.
3 - y + 4y = 6 Combine on the left
3 + 3y = 6 Subtract 3 from both sides
3 - 3 + 3y = 6 - 3 Combine
3y = 3 Divide by 3
3y/3 = 3/3 Combine
y = 1
=========================
x + y = 3 but y = 1
x + 1 = 3 Subtract 1 from both sides.
x + 1 - 1 =3 - 1
x = 2
Answer
x = 2
y = 1
0.4 is four tenths. 0.4 = 4/10=2/5
Answer:
The number is 92
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x equal the number
It is tripled
3x
Then it is tripled again
3(3x)
That equals 828
3(3x) = 828
9x =828
Divide each side by 9
9x/9 =828/9
x =92
