You can plug -x - 1 for y in the first equation
2x - (-x - 1) = 10
2x + x + 1 = 10
Combine
3x = 9
Divide
x = 3
Plug 3 for x in any equation ( I'll use th second equation )
y = - (3) - 1
y = - 3 - 1 = -4
x = 3 ; y = -4
(3, -4)
14.99n + 4.99
If we ordered 3 CDS, we need to replace 3 for n.
14.99(3) + 4.99
44.97 + 4.99
49.96
Answer: $49.96
Answer:
The number of plums = 4
The number of peaches = 16
The number of nectarines = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of peaches be = x
Let the number of nectarines be = y
Let the number of plums be = z
A box of fruit has four times more peaches than plums. This means that
The number of peaches = 4 X the number of plums.
i.e x = 4z
The box has 3 fewer nectarines than plums. This means that
Number of nectarines = number of plums - 3
i.e y = z - 3
If the box contains 21 pieces of fruit, this means that if we sum up all the peaches, nectarines, and plums in the box, we will get 21.
Peaches + Nectarines + Plums = 21
4z + z-3 + z = 21
6z =21 +3
z = 24/6
z = 4
Therefore, the number of plums = 4
The number of peaches = 4 X 4 = 16
The number of nectarines = 4 -3 = 1
