Answer:

x = 13 and y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 18

x - y = 8

<u>Step 1:  Find y</u>

x = 18 - y

(18 - y) - y = 8

18 - y - y - 18 = 8 - 18

-2y / -2 = -10 / -2

<em>y = 5</em>

<em />

<u>Step 2:  Plug into x + y = 18 to get x</u>

x + 5 - 5 = 18 - 5

<em>x = 13</em>

<em />

Answer:  x = 13 and y = 5

Can someone please help me with this I’ve tried so many times and I’m struggling
True [87]

Answer:

F is independent, g is dependent.

You can tell that because of the second sentence: "the number of frames she has determines the number of gifts she can create." So the number of gifts, g is dependent of F, and F is independent.
