2a + 3b = 6 --> Equation 1
5a + 2b = 4 --> Equation 2
Equation 1 * 5 --> 10a + 15b = 30
Equation 2 * 2 --> 10a + 4b = 8
Equation 1 - Equation 2 --> 11b = 22 --> b = 2
Sub b=2 in Equation 1 (or 2, either works):
2a + 3b = 6
2a + 3(2) = 6
2a + 6 = 6
2a = 0
a = 0
b = 2, a = 0
Answer:
x=21.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you distribute 3 to the parenthesis. You should get 3x-21=42 at this point. Then you add 21 to 42 to get 63. Here you should be at 3x=63. Divide 63 by 3 to get x=3
Given:
Karen earns $54.60 for working 6 hours.
Amount she earns varies directly with the number of hours she works.
She need to work to earn an additional $260.
To find:
Number of hours she need to work to earn an additional $260.
Solution:
Let the amount of earnings be A and number of hours be t.
According to question,

...(i)
where, k is constant of proportionality.
Karen earns $54.60 for working 6 hours.

Divide both sides by 6.


Put k=9.1 in (i).

Substitute A=260 in the above equation.

Divide both sides by 9.1.



Therefore, she need to work extra about 29 hours to earn an additional $260.
Answer:
Find the common like terns in each expression!
Step-by-step explanation:
For example A:
+3y +2x -2y +5z
+3y -2y = 1y or y
Then sort by the greatest values:
5z+2x+1y
