Answer:
wish i coul d help
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the numbers of gallons used by the 40 mpg and 35 mpg cars, respectively.
.. x +y = 40 . . . . . . . . . . .total consumption is 40 gallons
.. 40x +35y = 1525 . . . . total miles driven = 1525
Multiply the first equation by 40 and subtract the second.
.. 40(x +y) -(40x +35y) = 40(40) -(1525)
.. 5y = 75
.. y = 15
.. x = 40 -15 = 25
The 40 mpg car consumed 25 gallons.
The 35 mpg car consumed 15 gallons.
Answer:
2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
For each of her snack bag, she can fill it with a 1/3 cup of pretzels
1/3 x 8 = 2 2/3 cups
I assume that you mean 3 times 5 feet means how many feet and inches
so the answer is 5 feet and <u>blank </u> inches
or 12 inch in 1 feet so 12 times 5=60 so 60 inches
or you may have forgotton to put a number before the first inch word like 5 feet <u>3</u> inch
Answer:
x = 0
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 9y = 18 ---------eqn 1
y = x + 2---------eqn 2
Substitute eqn 2 into eqn 1, for the value of y
3x + 9( x + 2) = 18
3x + 9x + 18 = 18
12x + 18 = 18
12x = 18 -18
12x = 0
Divide both sides by 12 , to get the value of x.
12x/ 12 = 0/12
x = 0
Substitute x = 0 into eqn 2
y = x + 2
y = 0 +2
y = 2
Hint: to confirm the values
x = 0
y = 2
Let's take eqn 1 ,
3x + 9y = 18
3(0) + 9(2)
= 0 + 18
= 18
Correct
Let's take eqn 2
y = x + 2
Let's find y
y = 0 + 2
y = 2
Correct too
