Answer: Substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN:
y=3x
2x+4y=12
Then, 2x+4(3x)=12
-----------------------------------------
Substitution: replacing one variable in terms of another variable.
As we can see from the given aspects, y=3x, and the conclusion expression has no y instead of 3x. This means it represented y in terms of x, which fits the definition of substitution that replaces one variable.
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer in explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
for each row, the y- coordinate of the point where the line crosses the x- axis is zero. The point where the line crosses the x- axis has the form (a,0) ; and is called the x-intercept of the line. The x- intercept occurs when y is zero. Now, let's look at the points where these lines cross the y-axis

Answer:
12 sapphires
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the number of sapphires x. This means the number of rubies is the total number of gems minus x, or 17-x.
# of Sapphires: x
# of Rubies:17-x
A sapphire is worth 5 (gold coins) each, and a ruby is worth 8.
We also know the total amount of money is 100 coins, so
5*x+8*(17-x)=100
5x+136-8x=100
-3x=-36
x=12
Remember:
# of Sapphires: x
# of Rubies:17-x
...so Lara found 12 sapphires and 17-12=5 rubies.
