Solve the system using substitution y=8-x 7=2-y

1 answer:

8 0

If y=8-x then you can plug that into the equation like 7=2-(8-x). When you distribute the equation becomes 7=2-8+x. Once you combine like terms the equation becomes 7=-6+x. Then you subtract 6 from both sides, which gives you 13=x.
To find y just put 13 where x was in the first equation. Y=8-13.
Y=-5
X=13

WORTH 25 POINTS PLEASE HELP!!!

GalinKa [24]

Just subtract the smaller volume from the larger:

10 × 10 ×15 - 7 × 9 × 12

First you would multiply 10 × 10 × 15 = 1500 and then multiply 7 × 9 × 12 = 756.

After you would subtract 1500 - 756 which would give you 744

I hope that helped!

A store has a 25\%25% off sale on coats. With this discount, the price of one coat is \$34.50$34.50. What is the original price

timama [110]

Answer:

$46

Step-by-step explanation:

A percent is a portion of 100. If we receive 25% off then we pay 75% of the price. 100%-25%=75%. $34.50 is 75% of the original price. We find the new price through a proportion. A proportion is an equation where two ratios or fractions are equal. The ratios or fractions compare like quantities. For example, we will compare percent over percent to an equal ratio of $ to $.

$\frac{75}{100} =\frac{34.50}{y}$
