Mathematics

Dmitry [639]3 years ago

Answer:

Substitute 3x - 5 for y in the second equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, to solve the system of linear equations of x and y, the first step would be trying to eliminate x (or y).

Then turn the system into the equation of only y (or x).

Next, try to solve for y (or x).

Then substitute the solved y (or x) into the original system to work out x (or y).

**********

3 options (1 addition, 2 subtractions) do not eliminate x or y (x and y still exist after manipulation).

=> Remaining option relating substitution would be a reasonable choice.

A fish tank has 35 gallons of water in it, but suddenly starts leaking. Water is leaking from the tank at a rate of 1/4 gallon p
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

35 - m

Step-by-step explanation:

A tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of gallon per minute.

"m" represents the number of minutes spent

Number of gallons left in the tank = initial amount of water present – leaked amount of water

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – number of minutes spent  rate of leakage.

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – m minutes  1 gallons per minute
