Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x = 19, y = 36
Discussion:
x + 3 = 22 (*)
2x - y = 2 (**)
Subtract 3 from both sides of (*)
x + 3 -3 = 22 = 3 = 19 =>
x = 19
Substitute x= 19 in (**)
2(19) - y = 2 =>
38 - y = 2 => (add y to both sides)
38 -y + y = 2 + y =>
38 = 2 + y => (subtract 2 from both sides)
38 -2 = 2 -2 + y =>
36 = y

P.S. I'll be on vacation from Friday, Dec 22 to Jan 2, 2019. Have a Great New Year!
Answer:
D) -10
Step-by-step explanation:
We will assign g(x) to be equal to 25, and then solve for x:
25 = -3x-5
30 = -3x
10 = -x
-10 = x
So D is correct
So we know there are 12 eggs and they will be distributed like this:
12=x2+y1
and 4 cups of flour:
4=1/3x+1/2y
let's see if we can find a solution in which all the materials are used:
12=x2+y1
4=1/3x+1/2y//*6
12=2x+y
24=2x+3y//*6
substract from each other:
12=2y
y=2
12=2x+y
12=2x+2
10=2x
x=5
So if nothing is wasted, he can make 5 blueberry muffins (making 12*5=60) and 2 bran muffins (2*9=18), together 78 dollars,
would it be better if instead of the bran muffins he did blueberry muffins (which are more expensive?)
for the branberry muffins he will used the double amount needed for 1: so 1 cup of oil and 2 eggs. From this he can only make 1 tray of blueberry muffins (and some oil will be left over), which will cost 12 dollars, which is less than 18
so he better make 6 blueberry and 2 bran trays
Answer:
$55.80
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find how much Janet saved by finding 1/5 of 15.50:
15.50/5
= 3.1
Find how much Rob saved by multiplying 3.1 by 12:
3.1(12)
= 37.2
Then, find the total saved amount by adding them all together:
15.50 + 3.1 + 37.2
= 55.8
So, they saved $55.80 in total
