Solutions
⇒15 Cookie to 40 brownies can be written as 15:40
⇒15:40 is the ratio we have to simplify
The GCF of 15 and 40 is 5 so we divide them by 5
15 ÷ 5 = 3
40 ÷ 5 = 8
3:8 is in simplest form

Answer:
x = 2, y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find x, use elimination.
multiply everything in x - y = 3 by 2
(x - y = 3)2
that will now become 2x - 2y = 6
now line the equations up.
4x + 2y = 6
2x - 2y = 6
Now add everything going down.
4x + 2x is 6x, 2y and -2y cancel out, and 6 + 6 is 12. the equation is now:
6x = 12
divide on each side.
x = 2
to find y, substitute 2 into x - y = 3
2 - y = 3
-y = 1
y = -1
