first off, let's split the triplet into two equations, then from there on we'll do substitution.

that of course, is only true if x + y, or our numerator doesn't turn into 0, if it does then our fraction becomes 0 and our equation goes south. Keeping in mind that x,y and z are numeric values that correlate like so.
Answer:
D. $53,650
Hope this helps, sorry if it's wrong :)
Take out out the decimal place and times 368 by 1000 because you already have 3 numbers just add a zero on and your answer is 3680 inches of ribbon
Answer:
What is the x-value of the solution to the system of equations shown below?
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x +5
2y = 4x + 24
