Answer:
the nonlinear system of equations have D. three solutions
Let cheese wafers = x
chocolate wafers = y
we know they bought 20 total packets so x+y = 20, this can be re-written as x = 20-y
cheese wafers cost 2, so we have 2x
chocolate wafers cost 1, so we have 1y, which is just the letter y
so we know 2x + y = $25
replace x with x=20-y to get:
2(20-y)+y = 25
distribute the parenthesis:
40-2y +y = 25
combine like to terms to get:
40-y = 25
subtract 40 from each side"
-y = -15
divide both sides by -1
y = 15
chocolate wafers was y so they bought 15 chocolate wafers
cheese wafers was x, so they bought 20-15 = 5 cheese wafers
using the substitution method was the easiest way to isolate one of the variables in order to find the solution.
I'm pretty sure that it is 140. Hope I helped!
So to to get 3% of 159 you: 159x0.03=4.77
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
10x-6=5x+34
-5x -5x
5x-6=34
+6 +6
5x=40
