So, x + y = 42 and y - x = 5;
Then, y = x + 5;
Finally, x + x + 5 = 42;
2x + 5 = 42;
2x = 37;
x = 18.5;
y = 18.5 + 5;
y = 23.5;
You would do 1/4 x 1/2 to get 1/8 of a pound.
Answer:
no he is not correct because he did not add 234 and 1192 to find the value of h, which is 1426
Step-by-step explanation:
h-234 = 1192
add 234 to each side
h-234+234= 1192+234
h = 1192+234
h = 1426
