Let Maria's score be=y

<u>Given</u><u>:</u>

x=2y

x+y=51

<u>Substitution</u><u>:</u>

2y+y=51

<u>Formula</u><u>:</u>

2y+y=51

3y=51

y=17

x=2y

x=2(17)

x=34

34+17=51

51=51

Casey bought a 15.4 pound turkey and an 11.6 pound ham for Thanksgiving and paid $38.51.
White raven [17]

Answer:

h =  1.74

t =  1.19

Step-by-step explanation:

15.4t + 11.6h = 38.51

10.2t + 7.3h = 24.84

15.4•t + 11.6•h = 38.51

10.2•t + 7.3•h = 24.84

11.6h+15.4t = 38.51

7.3h+10.2t = 24.84

h = 87

50

= 1.74

t = 119

100

= 1.19

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

1. x = 12

2. x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. -222 = -2x - 12x - 54

-222 = -14x - 54

-168 = -14x

x = 12

2. 154 = 2x + 12x + 84

154 = 14x + 84

70 = 14x

x = 5
