Answer:

c) x = 6, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a parallelogram. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, so each part of a given diagonal is equal to the other part.

3x = 2y

2x = y+3

Solving the second equation for y, we have ...

y = 2x -3

Substituting into the first equation gives ...

3x = 2(2x -3)

3x = 4x -6 . . . . simplify

6 = x . . . . . . . . .add 6 -3x

y = 2(6) -3 = 9 . . . . use the above expression for y

The values of x and y are (x, y) = (6, 9).

HELP ASAP!!! I SUCK AT MATH AND I DON’T understand this!!!

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Part A:

$\frac{13}{20}$

Part B:

$\frac{1}{39}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of candies is 40.

10 + 14 + 4 + 12 = 40

14 are Butterfinger and 12 are Crunch.

14 + 12 = 26

$\frac{26}{40}$

$\frac{26}{40}=\frac{26/2}{40/2}=\frac{13}{20}$

$\frac{10}{40} =\frac{10/10}{40/10} =\frac{1}{4}$

40 - 1 = 39

$\frac{4}{39}$

$\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{4}{39}$

$\frac{1}{39}$
