What is the weight of the cow?
1/10x + 6 = 2/5x
6 = 2/5x - 1/10x
6 = 4/10x - 1/10x
6 = 3/10x
6 / (3/10) = x
6 * 10/3 = x
60/3 = x
20 = x <=== the gas tank can hold 20 gallons
When we look at an ordered pair, it will be presented as (x,y)
The first term, x (called the x-coordinate), will tell us how far we should count outwards from 0 (The Origin). The second term, y (called the y-coordinate), will tell us how far we will count outwards from our x coordinate.
I hope this helps! If you would like me to elaborate more just let me know:)
