How to substitute equations

Mathematics

When you are substituting equations, all you are doing is plugging in variables. Lets do an example..something random but easy...
y = 2x - 3
4x + 2y = 10
So since 2x + 3 equals y we are going to plug in those numbers into the second equation.
4x + 2(2x - 3) = 10
Now we distribute
4x + 4x - 6 = 10
Combine like terms.
8x - 6 = 10
Add 6 to both sides.
8x = 16
Divide.
x = 2
And thats how you substitute equations.
I hope this helps love! :)

A carpenter has a board that is 8 feet long. He cuts off two pieces. One piece is 3 1/2 feet long and the other is 2 1/3 feet lo
Aneli [31]
Add 3 1/2 and 2 1/3, 

Firstly, find the common denominator. It is is 6

3 3/6 + 2 2/6

this gets you 5 5/6.

Take this away from 8:

8 - 5 5/6 = 2 1/6

So 2 1/6 of the board is left over.

Find the perimeter of this shape
telo118 [61]
To find the circumference of a semi-circle, it would be 1/2<span> π × d. So, pi (3.14) times the diameter, 5 would be 15.7, but then we would need to multiply it by 1/2 to get the circumference for half the circle, and that will get you 7.85. Now you can add all the lengths now. 7.85 + 7 + 5 + 7 = 26.85. Hope this helps! Let me know if you still don't get it. <3</span>

what number must be added to 3 and 8 so that the ratio of the first number to the second number is equal to 3 :4​
Grace [21]
The answer is 12.
Steps
If that number is x
(3+x)/(8+x)=3/4
"Cross multply"
4(3+x)=3(8+x)
12+4x=24+3x
x=12
To check: add 12 to 3 and 8. 3+12=15 and 8+12=20. 15/20=3/4
