Answer:

9 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Boxes of Cereal 3 for the price of 2, the the price of the 3 boxes of cereals must be : 2 × £2.89 = £5.78

Boxes Megan can buy for the offer = £20 ÷ £5.78 = 3.46 (to 3 s.f.)≈ 3

3 × 3 =9 packs

But they actually only cost : 3 × £5.78 = £17.34

Therefore after buying the offer Megan has £20 - £17.34 = £ 2.66 left, which is not enough to buy a single pack, so the answer is 9.

The equation of a line is<br> -2x+5t=-20 <br>what is the x-intercept of the line?

vampirchik [111]

The x intercept of the line is at x = 10.

The x intercept is always the value of x when all other values are equal to 0. So in this case, we put 0 in for t and then solve.

-2x + 5t = -20

-2x + 5(0) = -20

-2x = -20

x = 10

How to solve systems of equations

Len [333]

You are given two equations, solve for one variable in one of the equations. Say you solved for x in the second equation. Then, plug in that value of x in the x of the first equation. Solve this (first) equation for y (as it should become apparent) and you'll get a number value. Plug in this numerical value of y into the y of the second equation. Solve for x in the second equation. And there you have it: (x, y)
