To solve the two equations simultaneously using the substitution method we need to rearrange one of the equation to make either 'x' or 'y' the subject. 

We can try in turn rearranging both equations and see which unknown term would have been easier to solve first

Equation 2x+8y=12

Making 'x' the subject
2x=12-8y , dividing each term by 2
x=6-4y⇒ (Option 1)

Making 'y' the subject
8y=12-2x, multiply each term by 8 gives
y= \frac{12}{8} - \frac{2}{8}x⇒ (Option 2)

Equation 3x-8y=11
Making 'x' the subject
3x=11+8y, divide each term by 3
x= \frac{11}{3}+ \frac{8}{3}y ⇒ (Option 3)

Making 'y' the subject
8y=3x-11, divide each term by 8
y= \frac{3}{8}x- \frac{11}{8} ⇒ (Option 4)

From all the possibilities of rearranged term, the most efficient option would have been the first option, from equation 2x+8y=12 with 'x' as the subject, x=6-4y

A can of peas weighs 10 oz. Explain how you would make a graph to model the total weight of peas in terms of the number of cans
Vika [28.1K]
Ur x axis will be the number of cans and ur y axis will be the weight in oz

u will label ur x axis( the number of cans) in intervals of 1......from 0 to 4
u will label ur y axis (the weight) in intervals of 10....from 0 to 40

ur equation would be : y = 10x
points on this line are : (0,0), (1,10), (2,20), (3,30), (4,40)

Helppppp pls im stuck on thi one problem :(
Ray Of Light [21]

First, find the simplified ratio of the given ratio:

Number of pirates: 22

Number of ships: 2

Divide 22 with 2 to find the ratio: 22/2 = 11

For every ship there is, there will be 11 pirates.

Now, find the ratio for the other questions:

IF there are 5 ships: 5 x 11 = 55

If there are 5 ships, there will be 55 pirates.

If there are 11 ships: 11 x 11 = 121

If there are 11 ships, there will be 121 pirates.
