X+y = 4, therefore y = 4-x when you rearrange the equation.
You can subsitute this in: x-(4-x) = 6
-4+x = 6-x
x=10-x
2x = 10
x = 5
Substitute x into the previous equation:
5+y = 4
y = 4-5
y = -1
Answer:
2:55 P.M.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add the amount of time Jim played outside; 45+55=100
100 minutes is equal to 1 hour 40 minutes.
If he left the playground at 4:35 P.M., then you have to subtract in order to find out when he arrived there.
Subtract 1 hour 40 minutes from 4:35 P.M. to then get 2:55 P.M.
To confirm your answer, you can add back the 1 hour and 40 minutes to 2:55 P.M. and you'll get 4:35 P.M.; back with what you started with.
Hope this helped !!!
960 beads are used to make the necklace.
192 x 5 = 960, so that's how i got my answer and then you just divide to check if it's right or not.
First you expand the brackets, so
36 + 6y = 9 - 3y
Then you get all the y's on one side
+ 3y
36 + 9y = 9
- 36
9y = 9
Then you divide by 9 to get y by itself
y = 1
