Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
→ Add 16 to both sides
x = 8
To find the total price, we use this equation:
42 + 0.039(42)
We can make it simpler:
1.039(42)
Multiply:
43.638
Because we're rounding
The total price is $43.64
Answer:
79.5 + 5.5x = Y
Step-by-step explanation:
Sumo wrestler gained 5.5 kg per month
After 11 month, he weighed 140 kg.
Let x be his current weight.
Then x + 11(5.5) = 140
x = 140 - 60.5
x = 79.5
If Y is the weight of the wrestler after t months, then the linear equation would be:
79.5 + 5.5t = Y
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[1] 3x - 4y = -24
[2] -x - 16y = -52
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
-4y + 3x = -24 -16y - x = -52
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] x = -16y + 52
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 3•(-16y+52) - 4y = -24
[1] - 52y = -180
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] 52y = 180
[1] y = 45/13
// By now we know this much :
x = -16y+52
y = 45/13
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = -16(45/13)+52 = -44/13
Solution :
{x,y} = {-44/13,45/13}
