Please help!

1 answer:

5 0

They use 9 blocks each, a total of 18 blocks.

Bill: 4b + 2
Ron: 8b - 5

To look for the value of b; I assume that both used the same number of blocks.

4b + 2 = 8b - 5
4b - 8b = -5 -2
-4b = -7
-4b/-4 = -7/-4
b = 1.75

Bill: 4b + 2 where b = 1.75 ; then, 4(1.75) + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
Ron: 8b - 5 where b = 1.75; then, 8(1.75) -5 = 14 - 5 = 9

What is the y value in the solution to this system of linear equations?

Travka [436]

Answer:

The y-value is -20

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's solve this by Elimination method;

-2(4x + 5y = -12)

4(2x + 3y = -16)

Let's Distribute;

-8x - 10y = 24

8x + 12y = -64

So x cancels out because -8 + 8 = 0

-10y + 12y = 2y

24 - 64 = -40

2y = -40

Divide both sides by 2;

y = -20

Now lets plug in y to find the value of x;

4x + 5(-20) = -12

4x - 100 = -12

Add 100 to both sides;

4x = 88

Divide both sides by 4;

x = 22
