Hey there! :)

Answer:

(2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + y = -6

4x + 3y = 2

We can begin by setting the first equation equal to y:

-2x + y = -6

Add 2x to both sides:

y = 2x - 6

Plug this equation for y into the second equation:

4x + 3(2x - 6) = 2

Distribute:

4x + 6x - 18 = 2

Combine like terms:

10x = 20

x = 2

Plug the value of 'x' into an equation to solve for 'y':

-2(2) + y = -6

-4 + y = -6

y = -2

Therefore, the solution is (2, -2)

Frank can build a fence in twice the time it would take Sandy. Working together, they can build it in 7 hours. How long will it take each of them to do it alone?

Answer

If Frank and Sandy can build the fence in 7 hours, they must be building

1

7

of the fence every hour.

Now, let the amount of time it takes Sandy be

x

hours so that Frank takes

2

x

hours. Sandy can build

1

x

of the fence every hour and Frank can build

1

2

x

of the fence every hour.

We now have the following equation to solve.

1

goblinko [34]

Answer:

35 pounds of tea for 80 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation::

value + value = value

80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50  

80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50  

20x = 14*50

x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)

50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)
