You can multiply either the top or bottom equation by -1 so lets say you apply it to the bottom equation it’ll look like this:

-9x + 9y = 18
6x - 9y = 12

then the +9y and -9y will cancel out

-9x = 18
6x =12

then you add the two equations together

-3x = 30

divide both sides by -3

x = -10

Examples of rates in algebra
lbvjy [14]

A rate is a special ratio in which the two terms are in different units. For example, if a 12-ounce can of corn costs 69¢, the rate is 69¢ for 12 ounces. ... When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

Some examples of rate include cost rates, (for example potatoes cost R16,95 per kg or 16,95 R/kg) and speed (for example, a car travels at 60 km/h). When we calculate rate, we divide by the second value, so we are finding the amount per one unit.

Lucy’s chocolate bar is 54% cocoa. If the weight of the chocolate bar is 54 grams, how many grams of cocoa does it contain? Roun
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The chocolate bar contains 29.2 grams of cocoa.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Lucy’s chocolate bar is 54% cocoa and the weight of the chocolate bar is 54 grams.

Hence, the amount of cocoa in the chocolate bar is given by

54% of 54 grams

54% percentage means 54/100 = 0.54

Hence, the amount of cocoa in the chocolate bar is

0.54\times54\\=29.16

When rounded to the nearest tenth, 29.16 should be equal to 29.2

Hence, the chocolate bar contains 29.2 grams of cocoa.
