Hiya. I'm going to rewrite the second equation.
By subtracting 5x by both sides, I'll be able to have y by itself:
-y=-5x+13
I'm going to then divide both sides by -1 to get:
y=5x-13.
Then, I'm going to plug that equation into the first equation
3x+2(5x-13)=39
Factor:
3x+10x-26=39
Combine like terms:
13x=65
Divide both sides by 13 to get x by itself to get x=5
Plug this back into the equation of y=5x-13
y=5(5)-13 to get y=12
The question is asking you to come up with a real-life example of something that can be represented as 15+ c= 17.50. If I were you I would do sales tax. You bought an item with a 15 dollar price tag, but when you go to check out 2.50 are added in tax to equal 17.50. to solve subtract 15 from 17.50: c= 2.50. Your variable (c) represents the sales tax. Hope that helps! :)
Answer:
1 pound?
Step-by-step explanation:
4/4 = 1 * 1 = 1
When solving for a variable, you get the variable you're trying to solve for on one side and everything to the opposite of that variable.
We have the equation <span>5w + 9z = 2z + 3w.
Usually the variable we're solving for we want on the left. But it's fine to have it on the right side, too.
Let's subtract 9z from the left-hand side. That way, the 5w will be alone on the left-hand side.
And remember, anything we do on one side we do to the other side.
</span><span>5w + 9z - 9z = 2z + 3w - 9z
</span><span>5w = -7z + 3w
The 3w term on the right-hand side needs to be removed. So, subtract each side by 3w.
5w - 3w = -7z + 3w - 3w
2w = -7z
Now, we need to divide each side by 2 to see what the w variable is equal to.
2w / 2 = -7z / 2
w = -7z / 2 or w = -3.5z
So, w is equal to -3.5z.

The answer is....<span>2 × 7 × 11.</span>
