You have got the right equation, ya

remember, you can do anything to an equation as long as you do to to both sides

now combine like terms

3.50p+5.50p=p(3.50+5.50)=p(9)=9p

so
3.50p+5.50p+6=51
9p+6=51
minus 6 both sides
9p+6-6=51-6
9p+0=45
9p=45
divide both sides by 9
(9p)/9=45/9
(9/9)p=5
1p=5
p=5

Given the system of equations, what is the x-coordinate of the solution?
Nimfa-mama [501]
Answer: Choice C) -11

-----------------------------------

Explanation:

The first equation given is y = 3 - 1/2x
In other words, y is the same as 3 - 1/2x. 
We can replace y in the second equation with 3 - 1/2x
This is known as substitution (think of a substitute teacher who is a temporary replacement for your teacher)

Doing this leads to...
3x+4y = 1
3x+4*y = 1
3x+4*( y ) = 1
3x+4*( 3 - 1/2x ) = 1 <<--- y has been replaced with 3-1/2x
3x+4*(3) +4*(-1/2x) = 1
3x+12-2x = 1
3x-2x+12 = 1
x+12 = 1
x+12-12 = 1-12 <<-- subtracting 12 from both sides
x = -11
Which is why the answer is choice C) -11

Help me will give brainliest!!
faust18 [17]

Answer:

3/4 or 9/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 12 movies in total. The possible chance of picking a drama movie is a 1 out of 4 chance (3/12 = 1/4), the possible of picking a movie without a drama is a 3 out of 4 chance (9/12 = 3/4)

12/12 - 3/12 = 9/12 = 3/4

raven plans to increase the price of each item in her store up 10%. which of the following sets of step could raven use to find
user100 [1]
To get the price of the new item after an increase of 10% you would have to find 10% of whatever the price is and add it to the original price so for example say the price is $300 you would do 300*0.10(0.10 is 10%) which is 30 and add that to 300 so the new price would be $330
