Mathematics

1. You need to get 5x on one side all by itself. So, you need to add 2 to the other side to undo the subtraction

5x = 8 + 2

5x = 10

2. Divide both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5} =  \frac{10}{5}

x = 2

Solve the system of equations by substitution y=5x-13 and 5x+2y=19
castortr0y [4]
Y = 5x - 13 ----------- (1)
5x + 2y = 19 --------- (2)

Sub (1) into (2):

5x + 2(5x -13) = 19
5x + 10x - 26 = 19
15x = 19 + 26
15x = 45
x = 3 -------- sub back into (1)
y = 5(3) - 13
y = 15 - 13
 y = 2

Ans: x = 3, y = 2

132=-6+3(1-5p) solve the equation
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

p=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

132=-6+3 (1-5p)

-6+3 (1-5p)=132

-6+3 (1-5p)+6=132+6

3(1-5p)=138

3(1-5p)/3=138/3

1-5p=46

1-5p-1=46-1

-5p=45

p=-9

Nathan shares out 12 sweets he gives yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys how many sweets does nathan get
Yuri [45]

Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, if he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys, Nathan will get 9 sweets.

<h3>How many sweets does Nathan gets?</h3>

Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys.

Let the sweet be represented by x

For each x sweet for Yasmin, Nathan gets 3x sweets

Hence

x + 3x = 12

We solve for x

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3

Hence;

Yasmin gets x sweet = 3

Nathan gets 3x sweets = 3 × 3 = 9

Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, if he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys, Nathan will get 9 sweets.
