Solve simultaneously.
4x - y = 8
6x + y = 2
Multiply top equation by 6, and bottom equation by 4, to eliminate x, so that we can find y.
~
24x - 6y = 48
24x - 4y = 8
Subtract top from bottom to form one equation.
~
-2y = 40
Therefore y is 20.
Put y back in to an equation, such as 4x - y = 8.
~
4x - 20 = 8
4x = 28
x = 7
Yes you did, congratulations ;-)
1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to subtract simple fractions to find the amount of milk that can be added to a cup of coffee
Given
Total Capacity of a cup = 7/9 pints
Coffee to be added in a cup = 2/3 pints
So in order to find the amount of milk that can be added we have to subtract the amount of coffee from the total capacity of cup.
So,
Hence,
1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer
