Answer:Walnuts cost $1.25 and chocolate chips cost $3.25
Step-by-step explanation: Make walnuts x and chocolate chips y.
3x+5y=20
6x+2y=14
Multiply the first equation by 2 and then subtract it from the second.
-(6x+10y=40)
6x+2y=14
-8y=-26
y=3.25
Plug y back into either equation and isolate x to solve for x.
6x+2(3.25)=14
6x+6.5=14
6x=7.5
x=1.25
Answer:
Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that if y varies directly with x, we can express the relationship such as
y ∝ x
y = kx
k = y/x
where 'k' is called constant of variation.
Given
y = -5
x = 12
Using the equation
k = y/x = -5/12
Thus, the value of k = -5/12
Finding x when y = 15
y = 15
k = -5/12
substituting y = 15 and k = -5/12 in the equation
y = kx
15 = -5/12 (x)
15×12 = -5x
180 = -5x
divding both sides by -5
-5x/-5 = 180/-5
x = -36
Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15
That would be M = 30G where M is in miles and G is in gallons.
X+3=61
x=61-3=58
58+37=95
180-95=85
so x=58 and y=85
