X = 9
y = 6

Step by step:

Divide 15 by 2: 15 ÷ 2 = 7.5
Subtract 0.5 from 7.5 (this will later be added back): 7.5 - 0.5 = 7
Subtract 1 from 7 (she wants to buy at least 2 more children books): 7 - 1 = 6
Subtract 6 from 15 (6 being the number of puzzle books, 15 being the total number of items): 15 - 6 = 9 (number of children books)

I have 3 questions for math
Airida [17]

Answer:

  1. no question content
  2. (x, y) = (1/2, 4)
  3. (x, y) = (2, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. No link, no question

__

2. Divide the first equation by 2 and substitute for y using the expression in the second equation.

  2x +(4x+2) = 5

  6x = 3 . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

  x = 3/6 = 1/2 . . . . divide by2

  y = 4(1/2) +2 = 4 . . . . substitute into the equation for y

The solution is (x, y) = (1/2, 4).

__

3. The solution using a graphing calculator is (x, y) = (2, 10). (see attached)

The system of equations is coincident.<br>What are the missing values?
telo118 [61]
Coincident lines are lines that are the same.

In the beginning of both equations we have '4x' and '8x'.

Note that 8 / 4 = 2.

Multiply the rest of the numbers in the first equation by 2.

5y * 2 = 10y

8 * 2 = 16

So our 2nd line will be:

8x + 10y = 16
