Step-by-step explanation:
let necklace : x
let earrings : y
x+y=144 -1st eqn
6x+5y=825 -2nd eqn
y=144-X -3rd eqn
substitute eqn into 2nd eqn
6x+5(144-x)= 825
6x +720-5X =825 (expanded)
X = 825-720
X =105
substitute "X=105" into 1st eqn
(105)+y=144
y= 144-105
y=39
1 necklace = 105$
1 pair of earrings = 39$
(to check back: substitute the value into the original eqn)
6z -4 - z + 10 = -9
Combine like terms
5z + 6 = -9
Subtract both sides by 6
5z = -15
Divide both sides by 5
z = -3
Have an awesome day! :)
Answer:
-10=x
Step-by-step explanation:
9x-1=10x+9
9x-10×=9+1
-x=10
x=-10
Answer:
1. x=6
2. x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
1.

2.

<u>Written Explanation: </u>
1.
-2x(3x+9)=-54
-6x-`8=54 (Distributive property)
Add 18 to both sides
-6x=-36
Divide both sides by -6 (negative divided by a negative equals a positive)
x=6
2.
2(3x+4)-3x=35
6x+8-3x=35 (distributive property)
3x+8=35 (combine Iike terms and then subtract them 6x-3x=3x)
Subtract 8 from both sides
3x=27
Divide both sides by 3
x=9
Answer:
9+9
Step-by-step explanation:
9+9=18
23-5=18
