i will use proportions for this.
x 52
------- = --------
2650 100
Cross multiply and u get 1378.
Hope it helps. :)
Answer:
x - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
x is how much Juan spent. Linda spent 17 less. x - 17 = How much Linda spent
Answer:
1-3x+8y
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply y and 2
Multiply y and 1
The y just gets copied along.
2*y evaluates to 2y
Multiply x and 4
Multiply x and 1
The x just gets copied along.
The answer is x
4*x evaluates to 4x
2*y-4*x evaluates to 2y-4x
The answer is 2y-4x+8
2*y-4*x+8 evaluates to 2y-4x+8
Multiply y and 6
Multiply y and 1
The y just gets copied along.
The answer is y
6*y evaluates to 6y
2y + 6y = 8y
The answer is 8y-4x+8
2*y-4*x+8+6*y evaluates to 8y-4x+8
-4x + x = -3x
The answer is -3x+8y+8
2*y-4*x+8+6*y+x evaluates to -3x+8y+8
8 - 7 = 1
The answer is 1-3x+8y
2*y-4*x+8+6*y+x-7 evaluates to 1-3x+8y
Taking v to be y, it's written in the standard form for a linear equation, y=mx+c
After having done this on paper:

We want to isolate the variable, and the first step is to subtract the 8.

Since the <em>n</em> is being multiplied by 3, and that = 8, we can multiply both sides by 3.
<em>n</em> = 24
Let me know if this helped you understand better.
Also, you can check this by substituting in 24 for <em>n</em>.
