Where is the rest of the question? Anyways maybe this picture will help.
Answer:
3x - 27 = 51
x equals 26
Step-by-step explanation:
3(dollars) times x(number of shirts sold). Then you subtract the amount she spent on supplies($27) and you get 51, the total profits she made.
Can't solve this equation...
5d=470:
in this case we have to divide both sides by 5:
d=94
8a=47:
in this case we have to divide both sides by 8:
a=5.875
as a general rule, if you want to find out a value of a in
ab=c
you have to divide both sides of the equation by b (if it's not zero); then you will have left:
a=c/b
and if you calculate c/b, this will give you the answer
Answer:
x + y = 4 Equation 1
y = 2x -1 Equation 2
-2x + y = -1
x + y = 4
Subtract
You will get
- 3x = -5
Divide by -3
-3x / -3 = - 5 /-3
x = 5/3
Substitute x into equation 1
x + y = 4
x = 5/3
5/3 + y = 4
y = 4 - 5/3
y = 7/3
x = 5/3 y = 7/3
Hope this helps.
