Answer:
(2, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 6x - 11 → (1)
- 2x - 3y = - 7 → (2)
Substitute y = 6x - 11 into (2)
- 2x - 3(6x - 11) = - 7 ← distribute and simplify left side
- 2x - 18x + 33 = - 7
- 20x + 33 = - 7 ( subtract 33 from both sides )
- 20x = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 20 )
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into (1) for corresponding value of y
y = 6(2) - 11 = 12 - 11 = 1
Solution is (2, 1 )
True the answer is true babes :)
Answer:
Hi how are you doing today Jasmine
The answer would be 11 gallons.
The tub starts with 32 gallons. Every minute it loses 3 gallons.
So after 1 minute it has lost 3 gallons. For example:
32-3= 29 Meaning that after 1 minute the tub has 29 gallons left.
Now you have to remember that the tub is draining for 7 minutes. So it is losing 3 gallons 7 times, because it loses 3 gallons each minute and there are 7 minutes.
We can use multiplication to find how many gallons the tub loses after 7 minutes. This sign “X” basically means “groups of”. We have 7 groups of 3, or
7 X 3
This is the same as saying we have 3, 7 times. Written like this:
3+3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 = 21
So after 7 minutes the tub has lost 21 gallons.
Now we take the original number of gallons and take away what was lost:
32-21=11
So there are 11 gallons left after 7 minutes.
Please let me know if you need any further explanation. Hope this helped.
