Answer:
he bought 19/24 pounds of grapes totoal
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 +5/12 = 19/24
common denominator is 24 for both of them so multiple 3/8 by 3 and 19/24 by 2
The answer is 2n - 1 = 12
Hope that helps!
No, it won’t work. The greatest common factor between 45 and 27 is 9, but 45-27=18. So it cannot work.
y = -1 + 3/8x
2x - 5y = 6
Substitute the first equation into the second equation, since y is already by itself.
2x - 5(-1 + 3/8x) = 6
2x + 5 - 15/8x = 6
2x - 15/8x = 1
16/8x - 15/8x = 1
1/8x = 1 Multiply 8 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 8
Plug x into either of the equations.
y = -1 + 3/8(8)
y = -1 + 3
y = 2
2(8) - 5y = 6
16 - 5y = 6
-5y = -10
y = 2
(8,2)
