(1) 3x+2y=12
(2) -4x+6y=24
Solving the system of equations using the method of substitution:
Isolating y in the first equation:
(1) 3x+2y=12→3x+2y-3x=12-3x→2y=12-3x→2y/2=(12-3x)/2→y=(12-3x)/2
Replacing "y" by (12-3x)/2 in the second equation:
(2) -4x+6y=24
y=(12-3x)/2→-4x+6[(12-3x)/2]=24
Solving for x:
-4x+3(12-3x)=24
-4x+36-9x=24
-13x+36=24
-13x+36-36=24-36
-13x=-12
-13x/(-13)=-12/(-13)
x=12/13
Replacing "x" by 12/13 in y=(12-3x)/2
x=12/13→y=[12-3(12/13)]/2
y=(12-36/13)/2
y={[(13)(12)-36]/13}/2
y=[(156-36)/13]/2
y=(120/13)/2
y=(120/13)(1/2)
y=60/13
x=12/13; y=60/13
-x+2y=-12/13+2(60/13)
-x+2y=-12/13+120/13
-x+2y=(-12+120)/13
-x+2y=108/13
Answer: The value of -x+2y is 108/13
56 pages/4 hours = 126 pages/x pages
Then you cross multiply
56*x =4*126 ---> 56x=504
Then you divide 56 to both sides
56x/56=504/56
The 56 cancels on the left side and then you get
x=9
So your proportion are:
56 pages/4hours=126 pages/9 hours
