Answer:
a. (15, 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
We start with those two equations:
1) a - 1.2b = -3
2) 0.2b + 0.6a = 12
We'll begin by modifying equation #1 to isolate a:
a = -3 + 1.2b
Then we'll use this value for a in the second equation:
0.2b + 0.6 (-3 + 1.2b) = 12
0.2b - 1.8 + 0.72b = 12
0.92b = 13.8
b = 15
Then we'll place that value of b in the first equation to find a:
a - 1.2 (15) = -3
a - 18 = -3
a = 15
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so:
You would want to find what 1/10 of the laptop costs. That would be the 10% of money left in Kai's account.
So,
423*.1
(you have to turn the percentage into a decimal; 10%= .10
423*.1= 42.3
So, Kai has 42.3 dollars left to buy a scanner. He only has 10% of his bank account left to spend on the scanner.
I hope this helps!

Answer: 15x + 6
5x + 2x+3 = 7x+3
6x+4 + 7x+3 = 13x + 7
13x+7 + 2x-1 = 15x+ 6
