To do this, multiply 9 by 18. This will show you how much they all weigh if there are 18 and each is 9 pounds.
The answer is 162.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x=2, y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
The left and right sides are equal
7x-2 = 5x+2
Subtract 5x from each side
7x -5x-2 = 5x-5x+2
2x-2 = 2
Add 2 to each side
2x -2+2 = 2+2
2x = 4
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 4/2
x =2
The top and the bottom are the same length
6x+y = 7x-1
6(2) +y = 7(2)-1
12 +y = 14-1
Subtract 12 from each side
12 +y-12 = 13-12
y = 1

Use the rational root theorem:

=16,

=1
The dividers of

: 1,2,4,8,16
The dividers of

: 1
Therefore, check the following rational numbers: +-


is a root of the expression, so factor out x-4
Compute

to get the rest of the equation.

Cancel the common factor:

is the final answer
Answer:
z = 21 ; y= 16
Step-by-step explanation:
first of all we have to isolate a variable.
In second expression we can obtain:
3y = 2z+6
y = 2/3 z + 2
now we have to substitute this value in the first equation and solve it
8(2/3z+2)-5z = 23
16/3z + 16 -5z = 23
16z +48 - 15z = 69
z = 21
now we have to substitute z in the second equation:
y = 2/3 (21) +2
y = 14+ 2 = 16
y = 16
