Answer:
x=28
y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
9x+6y= -12
-x-4y= -12
multiply -x-4y=-12 by 9 so the x's are equal
9x+6y= -12
-9x-36y= -108
add the equations so the x's cancel out
-30y=120
y= -4
plug y into an equation to find x
-x-4(-4)=-12
-x+16= -12
-x= -28
x=28
Divide 40 by 8 minutes to find the quantity per minute for one machine:
40 / 8 = 5 per minute.
One machine does 5 envelopes per minute.
Now divide 120 by 5 to find the number of machines needed:
120 / 5 = 24
24 machines would be needed.
To find factors of a number you have to see what numbers you can multiply to get to that number. For example i’ll use the number 9. 3x3 equals 9 and 9x1 equals 9.
That has a y intercept at y=-1. For every one block to the right we go three blocks up, so that's a slope of 3/1=3. So in slope-intercept form our equation is
y = 3 x - 1
