Answer:
it is diff because o the parentheses
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
40/3
Step-by-step explanation:
w = weight of soil needed
f = number of flower beds
a = constant value
w = a * f
<em>substitute</em>
10 = 6a
<em>simplify</em>
5/3 = a
w = (5/3)f
<em>plug in 8</em>
w = (5/3)(8)
<em>simplify</em>
w = 40/3
The number in the blank box should be 44 because it said that "3 times x and 4 times y is 44".
You need to multiply the first equation by 3:
3x + 3y = 39.
Then, subtract the first equation from the second equation:
3x - 3x = 0
4y - 3y = y
44 - 39 = 5
Your new equation should look like this: y = 5
Now, substitute y = 5 into the first original equation:
x + 5 = 13
x = 8
Ans. (x, y) = (8, 5)
Use a variable, x, to stand in for the number.
5+x is less than 17.
x is less than 12
Hope this helps!
