Answer:
x = 2 1/4 or 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
to start we can make an equation
9lbs = 4x
divide by 4
9/4 = x
x = 2.25 or 2 1/4
Answer:
x=3, z=-1, y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
you need to make the coefficients of each variable equal to each other then subtract 2 equations.
this one: multiply -4 in 1st
4x+4y+4z=32
-4x+4y+5z=7
_____________
8x+0-z=25
we have 2 equations with 2 variables now
2x+2z=4
8x-z=25
-12+8x+2x=2x-8
10x-12=2x-8
8x=4
x=1/2
C
