You can multiply or divide one equation so that it has a variable with a coefficient opposite of the other equation.
Example:
A) 2x + 3y = 6
B) 4x +2y = 20
Notice that neither equation has a "1" or "-1"
Let's multiply Equation A) by -2
A) -4x -6y = -12 Then add it to B)
B) 4x +2y = 20
-4y = 8
y= -2

A) 2x + 3*-2 = 6
2x = 12
x = 6

natima [27]

Answer:

The first statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when you look at the July graph you can see that the highest number of miles is 15 and the lowest number of miles is 1 so the range is 15 - 1 = 14.

When you look at the August graph you can see that the highest number of miles is 13 and the lowest number of miles is 5 so the range is 13 - 5 = 8

So the range of the July month is greater than the range of the August month

Answer:

58.25

Step-by-step explanation:

C is the total cost of the meal, fifty-eight dollars and twenty-five cents.

First, find the cost of the meal, which is forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents.

To calculate the amount of the sales tax, use the proportion, amount of sales tax divided by cost of meal equals sales tax rate divided by one hundred.

Substitute the known values. Amount of sales tax divided by forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents equals four point five divided by one hundred.

Cross multiply. One hundred times amount of the sales tax equals forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents times four point five.

Divide both sides by one hundred to find that the sales tax equals two dollars and nineteen cents.

Then, to calculate the amount of the tip, use the proportion, amount of tip divided by cost of meal equals tip percent rate divided by one hundred.

Again, substitute the known values into the proportion, amount of tip divided by forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents equals fifteen divided by one hundred.

Then, cross multiply. One hundred times amount of tip equals forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents times fifteen.

And, divide both sides by one hundred to find that the tip equals seven dollars and thirty-one cents.

Finally, add the amounts together to find the total cost of the meal was fifty-eight dollars and twenty-five cents.
