Both define y, so they are equivalent.
5x-9=2x+6
3x-9=6
3x=15
x=5
Then plug in x into any of the equations
y=2(5)+6
y=10+6
y=16
Final answer: (5,16)
Answer: the answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
2.8 lbs
Explanation- 16-6.8=9.2
12-9.2=2.8
So set up the equations
q-12=d
25q+10d=1105
plug in q-12 as d in the second equation:
25q+10q-120=1105, then simplify:
35q=1225
q=35
since there's 12 fewer dimes, we know that there's 23 dimes and 35 quarters.
