Mathematics
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 29

y = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Write 2 equations:

x + y = 42

x - y = 16

Isolate x in the first equation:

x = 42 - y

Substitute this in for x in the second equation:

42 - y - y = 16

42 - 2y = 16

solve for y:

-2y = -26

y = 13

Plug in 13 for y in either equation:

x + 13 = 42

Solve for x:

x = 29

What is the solution of the system <br> 3x + 2y =18 <br> Y= -2/3x + 12
laiz [17]

Answer:

3x + 2y =18


Y= -2/3x + 12

3x + 2(-2/3x+12) = 18

3x + (-4/3x+24) = 18

3x + -1 1/3x +24 =18

1 2/3x +24 = 18

1 2/3x = -6

5/3x = -6

x = -3.75

If Hannah gives her younger sister 3 shirts, it does not matter what order she hands them to her. No matter the order, it will still be the same group of 3 shirt. Since order is not important this problem can be solved using a combination. 
Specifically, we are asked to find 8C3 (sometimes called "8 choose 3"). This is a fraction. In the numerator, we start with 8 and count down 3 numbers. In the denominator, we start with 3 and count all the way down to 1.
your answer is 56
