Answer: You bought 7 books and you also bought 4 magazines
Explanation:
x = # of books purchased
y = # of magazines purchased
System of equations:
8x + 5y = 76
x + y = 11
Let’s use elimination in this case, but substitution can also work.
8x + 5y = 76
Multiply the (x + y = 11) by -8
We get:
8x + 5y = 76
-8x - 8y = -88
The xs cancel.
Add like terms.
-3y = -12
Divide by -3 on both sides
y = 4
Now plug in 4 into the (x + y = 11) equation to get x.
x + (4) = 11
Subtract 4 on both sides
x = 7
This shows the multiplication between 3 and 23. So your word problem will have to show that. Jean buys three packs of gum. Each pack has 23 pieces. How many pieces of gum does Jean have in total? :)
Answer:
10 +2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the given values into the perimeter formula and simplify.
P = 2(L+W)
P = 2(5 + x)
P = 10 +2x . . . . the perimeter of the rectangle in units
