Answer:
All you need to do is make sure the first expression is solved for y (which it is), and then substitute it into the second expression in place of any occurrences of y:
given the second expression:
x - y = 1
We'll replace y with it's value in the first expression:
x - (y) = 1
x - (5 - 2x) = 1
Now we can expand the resulting equation:
x - 5 + 2x = 1
So <em>neither</em> of the answers provided are correct.
You can then solve for x:
x - 5 + 2x = 1
x - 5 + 5 + 2x = 1 + 5
x + 2x = 6
3x = 6
3x/3 = 6/3
x = 2
After that, you can find y by plugging x into either of the two original equations:
y = 5 - 2x
y = 5 - 2(2)
y = 5 - 4
y = 1
I think you have to divide 984 and 41 which gets you 24
Answer:
44/60
Step-by-step explanation:
(33)(1/9•2-6+2)
18-6+2=14
33•1/14 = 33/14
The answer is 33/14 or 2.35714
The full answer would be 83.454 but you can just say 83 pounds. Both are right
