8 0

Answer:

48 old houses

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, every 4 new houses, there's 8 old houses. That's 4x8, therefore, if there are 8 new houses, that's 8x2, which is 16. Based on this information, this means that if there are 24 new houses, then you would have to multiply 24 by 2 to find the amount of old houses. 24x2=48. VOILA! You're done. :3

I NEED HELP!!! What is is this ----&gt; 3x - 3y = 3 12x + 8y = -8 <br> x = what <br> y = what
fgiga [73]

Answer:

3x = 3 + 2y -------------> 3x - 2y = 3 {subtracted 2y from each side of top equation}

(-4/3)x + y = -2/3 ------> -4x + 3y = -2 {multiplied bottom equation by 3}

3x - 2y = 3 ------> 12x - 8y = 12 {multiplied top equation by 4}

-4x + 3y = -2-----> -12x + 9y = -6 {multiplied bottom equation by 3}

12x - 8y = 12

-12x + 9y = -6

--------------

y = 6 {added the two equations}

3x = 3 + 2y {original top equation}

3x = 3 + 2(6) {substituted 6, in for y, into top equation}

3x = 3 + 12 {multiplied}

3x = 15 {added}

x = 5 {divided each side by 3}

x = 5 and y = 6
