Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason saved gas money (x).  Maria saved $20 more than double what Jason has (20 + 2x).  Combined, they saved $200.  Solve for x for Jason's amount.

(x) + (20 + 2x) = 200

x + 20 + 2x = 200

3x + 20 = 200

3x + 20 = 200

3x + 20 - 20 = 200 - 20

3x = 180

3x/3 = 180/3

x = 60

Jason saved $60 for this trip.

Answer:

Soccer = 120

Tennis = 220

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students enrolling for soccer and tennis classes is, 340.

The ratio number of students enrolling for soccer and tennis classes is, 6:11.

Then,

6x + 11x = 340

17x = 340

x = 20

The number of students enrolled for soccer class is, 6x = 6 × 20 = 120.

The number of students enrolled for tennis class is, 11x = 11 × 20 = 120.

Solve the system of equations using substitution -3x + 2y = 12 x = 2y - 8
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

(-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations:

-3x + 2y = 12

x = 2y - 8

You can 'substitute' the expression '2y - 8' for the value of 'x' in the first equation and solve for 'y':

-3(2y - 8) + 2y = 12

Distribute: -6y + 24 + 2y = 12

Combine like terms: -4y + 24 = 12

Subtract 24 from both sides: -4y + 24 - 24 = 12 - 24 or -4y = -12

Divide both sides by -4: -4y/-4 = -12/-4  or y = 3

Use y = 3 to solve for 'x':

x = 2(3) - 8 or 6 - 8

x = -2

(-2, 3)
