1. To solve this exercise, you must make a system of equations.
2. You have that f<span>our times a number minus twice another number is -8:
</span>
4x-2y=-8
3. And t<span>he sum of the two number is 19:
</span>
x+y=19
4. As you can see, you have two equations:
4x-2y=-8 (i)
x+y=19 (ii)
5. Let's clear the "x" from the equation (ii):
x=19-y
6. Now, you need to susbtitute x=19-y into the equation (i):
4x-2y=-8
4(19-y)-2y=-8
76-4y-2y=-8
76-6y=-8
-6y=-8-76
-6y=-84
y=-84/-6
y=14
7. You must susbstitute y=14 into the equation (ii) and clear "x":
x+y=19
x+14=19
x=19-14
x=5
The answer is: 5 and 14
Answer:
67%
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, we must find the decrease;
39 - 13
=26
Then we can find the percentage decrease
26/13 ×100 =66.666..which can be written as 67.
Answer:
c. 2b - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
-2 b + 4 + 4 b - 7
Grouping like terms, -2 b + 4 + 4 b - 7 = (4 b - 2 b) + (4 - 7):
(4 b - 2 b) + (4 - 7)
4 b - 2 b = 2 b:
2 b + (4 - 7)
4 - 7 = -3:
Answer: 2 b + -3
Answer:
$94
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of a bowl, a pan and a dish be $b, $p and $d respectively.
14b +9p +12d= 135 -----(1)
10b +6p +8d= 88 -----(2)
Subtracting equation (1) with equation (2):
14b +9p +12d -(10b +6p +8d)= 135 -88
Expand:
14b +9p +12d -10b -6p -8d= 47
4b +3p +4d= 47
Multiply both sides by 2:
8b +6p +8d= 47(2)
8b +6p +8d= 94
Thus, the price of 8 bowls, 6 pans and 8 dishes is $94.
I believe so! The number of texts sent or received by boys is proportional to the number of texts sent or received by girls! Have a nice day!
