We need to solve -3x+4y=12 for x
Let's start by adding -4y to both sides
-3x+4y-4y=12-4y
-3x=-4y+12
x = (-4y+12)/-3
x= 4/3 y -4
Now substitute 4/3 y -4 for x in 1/4 x - 1/3 y =1
1/4 x -1/3 y =1
1/4 (4/3 y -4) -1/3 y =1
Use the distributive property
(1/4)(4/3 y) + (1/4)(-4) -1/3 y =1
1/3 y -1 - 1/3 y =1
Now combine like terms
(1/3y -1/3y) + (-1) =1
= -1
-1 = 1
Now add 1 to both sides
0=2
So there are no Solutions
The answer is C
I hope that's help Will :)
Answer:
A) x=2, 8
Step-by-step explanation:
abs(x-5)=3
x-5=3, x-5=-3
x=3+5=8,
x=-3+5=2
Answer:
23 gallons of water
Step-by-step explanation:
People use water to cook, clean, and drink every day. An estimate of 33.9% of the water used each day is for cooking. If a family uses 67.8 gallons of water a day for cooking, how many gallons do they use every day?
This is calculated as:
33.9 % × 67.8 gallons of water
= 0.339 × 67.8 gallons of water
= 22.9842 gallons of water
Approximately = 23 gallons of water
Therefore, 23 gallons of water are used everyday for cooking
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
x= 13/4 - y/4
If you are solving for x (only)
X = 45/4 - y/4
If you are solving for y (only)
Y= 45- 4x
Answer: J=12
Explanation: To make this equation easier to solve, you can make everything a whole number (a.k.a. Remove the fractions). To do so, you can multiply everything in this equation by the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of all the denominators, which is 12. The equation now becomes:
-4=3J-40
Then, solve it using normal algebra:
-4=3J-40
36=3J
J=12
Much easier, right?!
Hope that helps シ
