The answer to your question would have to be 3060
So when you work with variables (x, y or any other letter), when they're beside a number it usually means to multiply.
So 3y can also be written as 3(3). So 3 multiplied by 3 is equal to 9
So now our problem looks like this,
x/9.
Since we already know what x is equal to, our problem will look like this
18/9.
So now all we have to do is divide.
18 divided by 9 is 2
So therefore, your answer is 2.
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
(1)
Karen: 
Alice: 
(2): Slope is 2
(3) y intercept
--- For Karen
--- For Alice
(4) They do not intersect
(5) No solution
(6) No
Step-by-step explanation:
Given


Solving (1): Complete the equation.
For Karen:
--- the rate
--- additional spendings
For Alice:
--- the rate
--- additional spendings
The general equation is;

For Karen, it becomes

For Alice, it is:

(2): The slopes.
In (1), we have:
--- the rate (for both Karen and Alice).
This rate implies the slope.
<em>Hence, the slope is 2</em>
(3): The y intercept.
The additional spendings in (1) means the y intercept.
So, we have:
--- For Karen
--- For Alice
(4) Because they have the same slope, they do not intersect
(5) Number of solutions.


Subtract both equations


This means there is no solution
(6) Can they spend the same amount on the same number of loaves
In (5), the equations have no solution
<em>Hence, it is not possible to spend the same amount for the same number of loaves</em>
