X/2 is what i think it is because each number divides by 2
Using substitution method
from the first equ
2x+y=-1
y= -1-2x --------(3)
put equ 3 into equ 2
3x -1-2x=6
3x-2x=6+1
x =7
put x+7 into equ 1
2(7) + y = -1
14 + Y =-1
y= -1-14
y=-15
so
x=7 and y=-15<span />
The two answers would 4/12 and 9/12. This is because one third of 12 is 3 and three fourths of 12 is 9.
To answer this you would divide 52 by 2.60 which is 20,
So, 28 / 20 = 1.40,
So the answer is $140 sales tax.
Hope this helps.
