Answer:

x=2 and y= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simultaneous equation. To solve this type of equation, there are three methods; substitution, Elimination and Graphical.

But here, we would be using the substitution method.

3x-y=9 Equation 1

2x-y=7. Equation 2

Getting y from equation 2, we have

-y= 7-2x

Multiply both sides by -

y= 2x-7 Equation 3

Substituting y for 2x-7 in equation 1, we have

3x- (2x-7)=9

3x-2x+7=9

x+7=9

x=9-7

x=2

Substituting x as 2 in equation 3

y=2x-7

y= 2(2)-7

y= 4-7

y= -3

Nifal earned 9$ for washing two cars .He recived $1 more for the second car.How much was he paid for washing each car?Which two

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Nifal received $ 4 for washing the first car.

Nifal received $ 5 for washing the second car.

4 and 5 have a sum of 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem can be rewritten as follows: Find the sum of two consecutive entire numbers equal to 9. That is:

$x + y = 9$

$y = x+1$

Then, by eliminating y:

$x + (x+1) = 9$

$2\cdot x + 1 = 9$

Now, let is clear $x$ :

$2\cdot x = 8$

$x = 4$

Nifal received $ 4 for washing the first car.

The earning for the second car is: ( $x = 4$ )

$y = x +1$

$y = 4 + 1$

$y = 5$

Nifal received $ 5 for washing the second car.

4 and 5 have a sum of 9.

One of my cats, Apollo, drives a cat car. He used 6/8 of a tank of gas to visit his friends for the weekend, and another 1 half

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Total gas used = 3/2 of a tank of gas

Step-by-step explanation:

Visit to friend = 6/8 of a tank of gas

Commute to work = 1/2 of a tank of gas

Weekend trip = 1/4 of a tank of gas

Total gas used = Visit to friend + Commute to work + Weekend trip

= 6/8 + 1/2 + 1/4

= 6+4+2/8

= 12/8

= 3/2

Total gas used = 3/2 of a tank of gas
