Answer: Josh served 84 lunches, Hong served 21 lunches, and Ann served 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are 120 lunches. We can just call the amount of lunches Josh served, x. So, we know that Hong served a fourth of the lunches Josh did, so we can label him as 1/4 x. We also know that Ann served 6 less than Hong, so she would be 1/4x -6. Next, we put all that into an equation.

120 = x + 1/4x + 1/4x - 6.

Now we have to get the x by itself, so you add 6 to the left side.

126 = x + 1/4x + 1/4x

Now we combine all of the x's.

126 = 1.5x

We then divide 126 by 1.5 to find the x value.

X =84

So because X is the amount Josh served, we know he served 84 lunches.

But Hong served 1/4 of the amount Josh served, so you divide 84 by 4 to get 21 lunches. Finally, Ann served 6 less than Hong, so you subtract 6 from 21 to get 15 lunches.

Hi Jessica,
<span>Remember PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction).

√3 x 66.15/4.41 {Exponents/Cube & Square Roots First}

1.73 x 66.15 ÷ 4.41 {Multiplication}

2. 2x - y = 6,<br> - x + y = -1
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

x = 5

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

just substitute the value of one variable into the other

-x +y = -1

or y = -1 +x   <-------- (i just added x to the right side)

now u know what y is equal to, just substitute that value into the first equation

2x - (-1+x) = 6     <-------- instead of y, i put the value of y from the 2 equation

NOW SOLVE FOR X!

2x +1 -x = 6

x + 1 = 6

x = 5

now solve for y since you have the value of x

y = -1 + x

or y = -1 + 5

y = 4
