X - y = 3 x + 3y = 9

Solve for one of the variables in the first equation (in this case, I will solve for X):
X = Y + 3

Then use that value of X in the second equation to solve for Y:
X + 3Y = 9
(Y + 3) + 3Y = 9
4Y + 3 = 9
4Y = 6
Y = 1.5

Use the value of Y we just found in the X equation we created:
X = Y + 3
X = 1.5 + 3
X = 4.5

Therefore X = 4.5 or 9/2 and Y = 1.5 or 3/2.

X - y = 3 is the same as x=3+y 

3+y+3y = 9 

3+4y=9 

4y=9-3

4y=6

y=6/4

y=3/2 

x-(3/2)=3 

x=3+(3/2) 

x=6/2+3/2 


x=9/2

Adding the fractions 3/14+2/21+1/6

NARA [144]

Answer:

$\frac{10}{21}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCM of 14, 21 and 6 is 42

We require to change the fractions to fractions with a denominator of 42

$\frac{3(3)}{14(3)}$ + $\frac{2(2)}{21(2)}$ + $\frac{1(7)}{6(7)}$

= $\frac{9}{42}$ + $\frac{4}{42}$ + $\frac{7}{42}$ ← add the numerators, leaving the denominator

= $\frac{9+4+7}{42}$

= $\frac{20}{42}$ ← divide both values by 2

= $\frac{10}{21}$ ← in simplest form

Two standard 6-sided number cubes are rolled, a red one and a blue one. How many different sums are possible?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

There are 11 different sums.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you roll two dice, the smallest number you can get is 2, and the largest 12, and you can get all in between. So 12-2 is equal to 10, but we have to add another 1 because 2 counts. So the answer is 11.
