The two equations given are
3x + y = 17 and 4x - y = 18
Now we will first take one equation
3x + y = 17
Then
y = 17 - 3x
Now replacing the value of y in the second equation we get
4x - y = 18
4x - (17 - 3x) = 18
4x + 3x - 17 = 18
7x = 35
x = 35/7
= 5
Putting the value of x in the first equation we get
3x + y = 17
(3 * 5) + y = 17
15 + y = 17
y = 17 - 15
y = 2
So the value of x is 5 and y is 2
Answer:
The number is -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the word problem, we can figure out the equation for the unknown number (x).
8x-3=-19
We would then work out the equation to find x.
Add 3 to -19.
8x=-16
Divide -16 by 8.
x=-2

4 miles / 27.8 min = 0.14388 miles per minute
26.2 / 0.143888 = 182.1 min
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
We put 237 in I,
3 in J,
10 in T,
4 in H
4 in M
Leave s as is because that's what we want to find.
