1. Rewrite the system:
x+12y=68 (i)
x=8y-12 (ii)
2. Let's substitute the equation (ii) into the equation (i):
x+12y=68
(8y-12)+12y=68
3. Then, you have:
8y-12+12y=68
4. When you clear "y", you have:
20y-12=68
20y=68+12
20y=80
y=80/20
y=4
5. You already have the value of "y". Now, you must substitute this value into the equation (ii):
x=8y-12
x=8(4)-12
x=32-12
x=20
6. Therefore, the result is:
x=20
y=4
1. 360*0.40=144
so they said 40% reggie collected main mor than 40% collected so you need to do add like 360+144=504
the answer 504
2. you need to do new to old
the new is 15 old is 799
799-15=784x100
the high number is 799
so you need to do 799 divided by 100=7.99
now 784 divided by 7.99=98.12
the answer is 98.12
Answer:
Length: 40 Width: 76
Step-by-step explanation:
W is width, and L is length.
We know that the length is 36 less than the width, so L = w - 36. Two times the width plus two times the length equals the perimeter, so set up the equation for the perimeter as:
232 = 2w + 2(w-36)
Now solve for w:
232 = 2w + 2w - 72
304 = 4w
w = 76
we now know that the width is 76, so solve for the length:
L= 76-36
L = 40
