Their is not a lot of information but I think it is 12*24=288
Okay, let's add the two x values.
10x + 75 = 5x = 110
15x + 75 = 110
Now let's minus 75 from each side.
15x = 35
Now let's divide each side by 15.
x = 2.333333333
Answer:
Pierre has enough boards and nails to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Step-by-step explanation:
13T+8C ≤ 220
Let us substitute 9 for T and 5 for C and check.
13(9) + 8(5) = 117 + 40
= 157 < 220
So, 220 wooden boards are sufficient to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
48T+37C ≤ 760
Substitute 9 for T and 5 for C.
48(9)+37(5) = 432 + 185
= 617 < 760
So, 760 nails are sufficient to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Hence, Pierre has enough boards and nails to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Cross Multiply by 'x - 5'
Hence
y(x - 5) = 4 -3x
xy - 5y = 4 - 3x
Move all the terms containing an 'x' to one side of the equals and all the others to the opposite side.
xy + 3x = 4 + 5y
Factor out 'x'
x(y + 3) = 4 + 5y
'Cross' divide by 'y + 3'
x = ( 4 + 5y) / (y + 3 )
'x' is now the subject.
