We can solve this system of equations using substitution.
2y + 2x = 8
Solve for x.
2x = -2y + 8
Divide all terms by 2.
x = -y + 4
Take the equation x = -y + 4 and substitute it into the second system of equation.
2y - 4x = 2
2y - 4(-y + 4) = 2
Simplify by distributing.
2y + 4y - 16 = 2
Combine like terms.
6y - 16 = 2
6y = 18
y = 3
Now that you know the numerical value of y, substitute y with 3 in both equations to find x.
1) 2y + 2x = 8
2(3) + 2x = 8
6 + 2x = 8
2x = 2
x = 1
2) 2y - 4x = 2
2(3) - 4x = 2
6 - 4x = 2
-4x = -4
x = 1
The value of x is 1, and the value of y is 3.
Solution: B) (1, 3)
Hi there!
We can set up a ratio to model the problem...
540/3000 = x/100
Now, just cross multiply and solve for x.
54000 = 3000x
x = 18
Therefore, 18 percent of last semester's college costs was spent on books. Hope this helped and have a great day!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe the answer is x² + y² = 9²
Answer:
$54
Step-by-step explanation:
she had 6 grandchildren and she used $9 for one grandchild so we multiply
9 x 6 = $ 54
8% = 8 ÷ 100
( 8 ÷ 100 ) × 259 = 20.72
none of the answers in the choices are correct. but if they are, go with letter b because it is closer to 20.72
