Well, to solve for x, you have to isolate it. I will show how to solve it, step-by-step below:
2x+3y=12
2x+3y-3y=12-3y
2x=-3y+12 ...divide both sides by 2
x=-3/2y+6

Now, to completely solve for x, you need to find what y is equal to. But to solve for y, you have to "get rid" of the x. You can use "-3/2y+6" in place of the x.
2(-3/2y+6)+3y=12
-6/2y+12+3y=12 ...simplify
-3y+12+3y=12 ...move the 12 to the other side
-3y+12-12+3y=12-12
-3y+3y=0 ...add like things
0=0

...oh. There is no solution...

Let me try doing y first...
2x+3y=12
3y=-2x+12
y=-2/3x+4

2x+3(-2/3x+4)=12
2x-6/3x+12=12
2x-2x=0
0=0

...yo...what is going on... are you sure you gave us the right numbers... no typos?

A weightlifter holds a 1,700 N barbell 1 meter above the ground. One end of a 2-meter-long chain hangs from the center of the ba
masha68 [24]
In physics, work is equal to the product of force and distance, given that the direction of force is the same with the direction of the distance.

W = Fd

The total force is 
F = 1,700 N + 500 N = 2,200 N
Now, if the question is the work needed to lift the barbell from the ground, the distance would be 2 m. Hence, the work would be

W = (2,220 N)(2 m) = 4,400 N·m or 4,400 J

Question 3
Crank

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a patient = 70 kg

A 70kg patient has approximately 8 pints of blood.

The patient donates 470mL of blood.

We know that,

1 pint = 568 mL

8 pints = 4544 mL

Required fraction,

\dfrac{470}{4544}=0.1\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}

So, the required fraction is approximately \dfrac{1}{10}.
