Answer:

9 basket balls, 15 foot balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of basket ball

y be the number of foot ball

1 basket ball = $22

so x basket ball = 22x

1 foot ball = $30

so y foot ball = 30y

Total cost = 648

The equation becomes 22x+ 30y = 648

Given : They bought 6 more footballs than basketballs.

foot  ball (y) = 6 more basket balls(x)

so y = x + 6

we solve for  x  and y

Now we plug in x+6 for y in the equation 22x+ 30y = 648

22x+ 30(x+6) = 648

22x + 30x + 180 = 648

Subtract 180 on both sides

52x = 468

Divide both sides by 52

so x= 9

Number of basket ball x= 9

Number of foot ball y=x+6= 9+ 6 = 15

5+3r=5r-19(if there is no solution,type in ''no solution'')r= Answer
TEA [102]

Answer: 12 = r

Step-by-step explanation: When we have this kind of a setup, we want to put our variables together on one side of the equation and our numbers together on the other side of the equation.

First, let's put our variables on the right side by subtracting 3r from both sides of the equation. That gives us 5 = 2r - 19.

Now we can move our numbers to the left by adding 19 to both sides of the equation and we get 24 = 2r.

Divide both sides by 2 and 12 = r

Note:

Don't just do this problem in your head. It's extremely important to develop the habit of putting all your steps down on paper or digitally. It will really pay off for you down the line.

Mr. Lin writes the expressions
Nady [450]

Answer:

Just see that the first expression has all negative, meaning the total will be a negative, but the second expression the subtraction sign and the negative sign are together, there's a rule when two negative sign's are together/next to each other, they turn into a addition sign, so it basically 8 + 20 for the second expression, so 8-(-20) has a higher result

Step-by-step explanation:

There's no work needed to be done :P
