Answer:

x=6 y=16

Step-by-step explanation:

I will use elimination

y=2x+4

y=2x+x-2

*3 y=2x+4 3y=6x+12

*2 y=3x-2 2y=6x-4

3y=6x+12

- 2y=6x. -4

y=16

16=2x+ 4

-4 -4

12= 2x

/2 /2

6=x

Molly owes her brother $300.She works for $10 per hour as a checker at the local grocery store.Molly plans to repay her brother

gavmur [86]

Answer: The expression which represents the condition described is given as $4x=300$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount that Molly owes her brother = $300

Let the number of hours she worked as a checker be x

Cost of per hour = $10

Amount she get after doing work for x hours is given by

$10x$

Rate of tax are taken out = 80%

So, amount she left with is given by

$\frac{100-20}{100}\times 10x\\\\=\frac{80}{100}\times 10x\\\\=8x$

So, Molly plans to repay her brother half of what she earns is given by

$\frac{8x}{2}=4x$

According to question,

$4x=300\\\\x=\frac{300}{4}\\\\x=75\ hours$

So, the expression which represents the condition described is given as

$4x=300$

The table shows the results of a survey on people’s favorite fruit. What percent of the people chose strawberry as their favorit

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

24.2%

Explanation:

The percentage of people choosing strawberry can be calculated as follows:

$Percentage = \frac{PeopleChoosingStrawberry}{TotalNumberOfSurveyedPeople} * 100$

We have:

Number of people choosing strawberry = 15 people

Total number of surveyed people = 17 + 10 + 17 + 3 + 15 = 62 people

Substitute in the above rule to get the percentage as follows:

$Percentage = \frac{15}{62}*100 = 24.19 = 24.2$ %

Hope this helps :)

-15 + 12x = 5x + 7 -3x SOLVE FOR X

Natali [406]

Answer: $x=\frac{11}{5}$

Simplify both sides of the equation

$-15+12x=5x+7+-3x$

$12x-15=(5x+-3x)+(7)$ (Combine Like Terms)

$12x-15=2x+7$

Subtract 2x from both sides

$12x-15-2x=2x+7-2x\\10x-15=7$

Divide both sides by 10

$\frac{10x}{10} =\frac{22}{10}$

$x=\frac{11}{5}$
