Write an equation system based on the problem
For an instance, e stands for the price of a carton of eggs, and b stands for the price of a loaf of bread
"Kate bought 3 cartons of eggs and 5 loaves of bread for $30.07" could be written as 3e + 5b = 30.07 (first equation)
"Melissa bought 2 cartons of eggs and 2 loaves of bread for $14.74" could be written as 2e + 2b = 14.74 (second equation)
Solve the equation system using elimination method
Eliminate b to find e. To eliminate b, we should equalize the coefficient of b.
3e + 5b = 30.07 (multiplied by 2)
2e + 2b = 14.74 (multiplied by 5)
-------------------------------------------
6e + 10b = 60.14
10e + 10b = 73.70
------------------------- - (substract)
-4e = -13.56
e = -13.56/-4
e = 3.39
The price for a carton of eggs is $3.39
Answer:
B. move forward 7, left 6, and down 5
Step-by-step explanation:
By the <u>convention of 3D geometr</u>y, the coordinates of a point (x,y,z) represent how far the point is from the origin forward-backward , right/left , up-down respectively with prior one for the positive coordinate and latter for the negative coordinate.
so we need to move forward 7 for x=7 then to left 6 for y=-6 and then down 5 for z=-5.
Answer:
n = 24 - 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
n + 8 = 24
Subtract 8 from each side:
n + 8 - 8 = 24 - 8
n = 24 - 8.
