Solve the system using the substitution method 6x - 2y = -4 y= 3x + 2

Mathematics

Answer:

x= -0.66+0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

you already have what y equals, so the next step is to plug in the solution for y into  6x - 2y = - 4

-plug in y = 3x + 2 into 6x - 2y = - 4 through the y variable

-making the equation now 6x - 2(3x + 2) = - 4

-now solve for x by distributing -2 to 3x and +2

6x - 6x - 4 = - 4 ------> - 4 = - 4

6x - 2y = - 4 -----> 6x = - 4 + 2y -----> x = - 0.66 + 0.33

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - 2y = -4

y= 3x + 2

We see that y = 3x + 2 so we can use that value of Y everytime we see i in the other equation.

6x - 2(3x +2) = -4

Now usually we'd we simply solve for X.

6x - 6x -4 = -4

This clearly does not work as we cannot get rid of X

Therefore, this system of equations has no solution we can find through substitution

Elvira is comparing prices between two different suppliers of fresh lettuce. Val’s Veggies charges $250 for delivery plus $1.50
ad-work [718]

Answer:

61 bags of lettuce

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create two equations representing the cost of bags of lettuce:

Val's Veggies: 250 + 1.50x = V

Sally's Salads: 100 + 4.00x = S

If you buy 60 bags of lettuce from either store, the answers will be equivalent:

If x = 60

250 + 1.50x = V

250 + 90 = V

340 = V

100 + 4.00x = S

100 + 240 = S

340 = S

Now that both equations are equivalent, all we need to do to tip the balance and make Val's Veggies cheaper is purchase one more bag of lettuce:

x = 61

250 + 1.50x = V

250 + 91.50 = V

341.50 = V

100 + 4.00x = S

100 + 244 = S

344 = S

Since V represents the price of a bag of lettuce at Val's Veggies and V is now less than S (Sally's Salads), Val's Veggies is now the cheaper option.

Therefore, 61 bags of lettuce must be purchased in order for Val's Veggies to be the cheaper option.

I need a easy way to do percentage
o-na [289]
It depends on what you are trying to calculate but the most common way I go to find percentage is to multiply by the number in decimal for ie. 50% = .5.

If you are looking for a way to do it quickly in your head I always take find out what 10% is like in the case of 100 it would be 10 so if I want to find 15% I know I can find 10% and if I cut what 10% is in half I will find 5% so likewise if I add what 10%+5% I will end up with 15%. For example, 10% of 100 is 10 half of 10 is 5 and 10+5 equals 15. If you need to find something like 20% or 30% I know that I can find 10% and instead of dividing(cutting it in half) I can multiply by 2 or 3. 10% + 10% =20%

I hope it helps, if you have more questions let me know!

Will do a brainly! 4/7=18/31.5
german

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. 4 ÷ 7 = 0.5714
  2. 18 ÷ 31.5 = 0.5714
  3. Because they are the same result, the two fractions are equal. Therefore, the equation is true.
