Answer:
I could do 1 and 3
1) 2x-3y=-2 ....1
-
2x+y=14......2
=-4y=-16
y=4
<u>Substitute</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>y</u><u>=</u><u>4</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>into</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u> </u><u>1</u>
2x-3 (4)=-2
2x-12=-2
2x=-2+12
2x=10
×=5
3) 5x+5y=20....1
-
-3x+5y=4......2
=8x=16
x=2
<u>S</u><u>ubstitute</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>x</u><u>=</u><u>2</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>into</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u> </u><u>1</u>
<u>5</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>2</u><u>)</u><u>+</u><u>5y</u><u>=</u><u>20</u>
<u>10</u><u>+</u><u>5y</u><u>=</u><u>20</u>
<u>5y</u><u>=</u><u>20-10</u>
<u>5y</u><u>=</u><u>10</u>
<u>y</u><u>=</u><u>2</u>
We know that $375 is spent for three weeks period
One week period is 5 days, so for three weeks periods, there are 15 days in total when the truck use the gasoline.
The amount spent on gasoline for one day is $375÷15 = $25
You r GCF would be 7 because it multiplies both those numbers
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
4(x - 2)= 100 and 2(x - 2) = 50.
We can determine that in both equation x equals 27. But, why is the second one half as much as the first problem? This is because the second problem is being multiplied with a number half as large as the first. Since 27 - 2 = 25 and 25 x 4 = 100 and 25 x 2 = 50 these problems hold up to their function.
If x = 27:
<u>4(x - 2) = 100</u>
27 - 2 = 25
25 x 4 = 100
<u>2(x - 2) = 50</u>
27 - 2 = 25
25 x 2 = 50
