The answer is x = 10, y = 10.

Step 1: rearrange the second equation for y.
Step 2: substitute y from the second equation into the first equation.
Step 3. Calculate y.

Step 1.
<span>The second equation is: 6x + 3y = 90
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
(6x + 3y)/3 = 90/3
6x/3 + 3y/3 = 30
2x + y = 30
Rearrange the equation:
y = 30 - 2x

Step 2.
</span>Substitute y from the second equation (y = 30 - 2x) into the first equation:
<span>15x + 9y = 240
15x + 9(30 - 2x) = 240
15x + 270 - 18x = 240
15x - 18x = 240 - 270
-3x = -30
x = -30/-3
x = 10

Step 3.
Since </span>y = 30 - 2x and x = 10, then:
y = 30 - 2 * 10
y = 30 - 20
y = 10

A gift box in the shape of a rectangular prism measures 8 inches by 8 inches by 10 inches what is the least amount of wrapping p
Phantasy [73]
The first thing we must do for this case is to find the surface area of the rectangular prism.
 We have then:
 A = 2 * (l * h) + 2 * (h * w) + 2 * (w * l)
 Where,
 w: width
 l: long
 h: height
 Substituting values we have:
 A = 2 * (10 * 8) + 2 * (8 * 8) + 2 * (8 * 10)
 A = 448 in ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the least amount of wrapping paper needed to wrap the gift box answer is:
 
A = 448 in ^ 2

how to determine which quantity is independent and which quantity is dependent when considering a situation
KATRIN_1 [288]

An easy way to think of independent and dependent variables is, when you're conducting an experiment, the independent variable is what you change, and the dependent variable is what changes because of that. You can also think of the independent variable as the cause and the dependent variable as the effect.

I hope this helps!

You save 5 cents per ounce by using the 40 ounce jar, because if you do $5.20 divided by 40 it equals $0.13 but if you do $2.70 divided by 15 it equals $0.18 which is 5 more cents the the 40 ounce
