Answer:
2x + 3y = 13
4x - y = -2
In the second equation, subtract 4x from both sides.
-y = -2 - 4x
Divide both sides by -1.
y = 2 + 4x
Put this into the first equation in place of y.
2x + 3(2 + 4x) = 13
Multiply everything in the parenthesis by 3.
2x + 6 + 12x = 13
Combine like terms.
14x + 6 = 13
Subtract 6 from both sides.
14x = 7
Divide 14 on both sides.
x = 7 / 14
x = 0.5
Put this into the second equation in place of x.
4(0.5) - y = -2
2 - y = -2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
-y = -4
Divide both sides by -1.
y = 4
So x = 0.5 and y = 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
dropped $3 means "-3", increased $6 means "+6"
the price dropped twice so 2(-3) and increased once by 6
so, 2(-3) + 6 = 0
the change in price is $0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2*4+3= 11/4
2*2+1= 5/2
11/4 * 5/2 = 55/8
Simplified 6 7/8
may i please get brainlyest She can make 42 identical packages which contains 2 chocolate chip cookies and 1 sugar cookies.
86 / 2 = 43 chocolate chips cookies
42 / 1 = 42 sugar cookies
Though the chocolate chip cookies can make 43 packs, the sugar cookies cannot fulfill the extra pack for it only has 42 pieces. That is why the maximum number of package that has identical content is 42 packages.
It’s the first one .
thank you
