Let x the the number of cans of tomatoes and 
      32 - x be the number of cans of corn

From the given that the total cost in buying all 32 cans of vegetables is $18 and the costs of each can of vegetables, we generate the equation,
 
                              18 = 0.80x + 0.40(32 - x)

Solving for x from the equation gives x = 13. Alex bought 32 - x cans of corn with a numerical value of 19. Thus, Alex bought 19 cans of corn.

<span>x + y = 32 --> x = 32 - y
now sub that into the other equation
80(32 - y) + 40y = 1800

Now you solve for y.
Once y is found, sub that back into the equation x + y = 32, and solve for x.

If you wish to check your answer, sub it back into the equations.
x + y = 32
13 + 19 = 32
32 = 32 (this works)

80x + 40y = 1800
80(13) + 40(19) = 1800
1040 + 760 = 1800
1800 = 1800 (this works) you are correct.

x = 13 and y = 19</span>

Answer:

7.005 m^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can split this into one vertical rectangle   3.45 * 0.9 m^2

2 rectangles 2 * 0.75  = 1.5 m^2

1 rectangle 1.2 * 0.75 m^2

=  3.105 + 2 * 1.5 + 0.9

= 7.005 m^2.

What is the value of x for 7x - 12 y = 180 / 7x = 84
katrin2010 [14]

eq^2: 7x=84 divide 84 by 7 which is 12.

therefore x is equal to 12. Then

1) take that 12 you got in equation 2 and substitute in equation 1 which is:

7x-12y=180

7(12)-12y=180

84 -12y=180

-12y=180-84

-12y=96 ............divide both sides with -12

-y=8 (×-1) both sides

y= -8

therefore 7(12)-12(-8)=180
