The answer should be 9.
After you solve what's in the parentheses, you solve the problem starting from left to right.
6÷2(1+2)
6÷2(3)
3(3)
9
Step-by-step explanation:
well, as you can witness both of the equations are equal to y, so you're free to reckon that they are equal as well

I think it is 420 but I'm not sure
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: number of pillowcases
y: number of sheets
We now write the system of equations:
2x + 5y = 40
x = 2y
Solving the system we have:
x = 8.9
y = 4.4
Answer:
The maximum number of pillowcases she could have purchased is:
x = 8 (spent less than $ 40)
Answer:
Ignacio can make 5 clockwise rotations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the Ignacio's legs are already at a height of 49.3cm and each rotation of the chair knob raises his legs another 4.8cm, we can set up an inequality to determine the number of rotations Ignacio could make without his legs touching the desk, which is at a height of 74.5cm:
4.8r + 49.3 < 74.5 where 'r' is equal to the number of rotations
The sum of the Ignacio's original leg height plus the amount of height increased from the rotations of the know must be less than 74.5 in order for his legs not to touch. Now, solve for 'r':
Subtract 49.3 from both sides: 4.8r + 49.3 - 49.3 < 74.5 - 49.3 or 4.8r < 25.2
Divide 4.8 from both sides: 4.8r/4.8 < 25.2/4.8 or r < 5.25
Since the number of rotations must be less than 5.25, he can make 5 complete rotations.
