1)  3x-7y=2
2)  If you're solving for x, you want to isolate it, so move the -7y to the right:
          3x = 7y + 2
3)  Now, to get x by itself, you divide both sides by 3
          3x/3 = (7y + 2)/3
4)  You get:
           x = 7/3y + 2/3

So, 3 * 4 = 12 , 7 * 1.5 = 10. 12-10 = 2 so x= 4<span /><span />

can i get some help? i tried figuring it out myself already but i must have done something wrong. please help!

First, we'll set up two equations. One for the amount of each coin and another for the value of the coins.

N will represent nickels

D will represent dimes

N + D = 30

---The problem tells us that there are 30 total coins

0.05N + 0.10D = 2.95

---Nickels are worth 5 cents and dimes are worth 10 cents, and the total value of the coins is 2.95

Now that we have our equations, we need to solve for one of the variables in the first equation. I will solve for N.

N + D = 30

N = 30 - D

Then, we take that equation and substitute our new value for N into the second equation (value) and solve for D.

0.05(30 - D) + 0.10D = 2.95

1.5 - 0.05D + 0.10D = 2.95

1.5 + 0.05D = 2.95

0.05D = 1.45

D = 29

Now that we know how many dimes there are, we can plug that value into our equation for N and solve for N.

N = 30 - D

N = 30 - 29

N = 1

Therefore, there are 29 dimes and 1 nickel.

Hope this helps!

A pair of jeans that originally costs $42 is 25% off.Find the sale price.ASAP PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anon25 [30]
Original Price = $42
Discount = 25%   ---------> 25% is discount because it says 25% <span><u />off!!!</span>
Now,
Sale price = original price - discount % of original price  
                 = 42 - 25% of 42 
                 = 42 - (25/100) * 42   
                 = 42 - 0.25 * 42 
                 = 42 - 10.5 
                 = 31.5

So, the sale price is $31.5

The city's budget is 8,000,000. The city actually spends 12,000,000.What is the city's deficit
Anna35 [415]

Hi!

We will subtract the budget with the sum that was actually spent, like this:

8,000,000 - 12,000,000 = -4,000,000

The city's deficit is -4,000,000

Hope this helps!
