20pts how do you solve 3x-2y=14?

1 answer:

4 0

X(3) - Y(2) = 14. So you need numbers that will multiply by 3 and a number that multiply by 2 that will equal 14.
The x can be 10 (equals 30) and then y can be 8 (equals 16).
30 subtracted by 16 equals 14.

ANSWER:

X = 10 Y = 16
3(10) - 2(8) = 14

Hope this helped. Have a great day. A thank you and (or) brainliest is always appreciated. Goodbye!

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

p<4

Step-by-step explanation:

4p+2< 2(p+5)

Distribute: 4p+2<2p+10

Subtract 2 from both sides: 4p<2p+8

Subtract 2p from both sides: 2p<8

Divide and we get: p<4

A candy manufacturer makes two types of special candy, say A and B. Candy A consists of equal parts of dark chocolate and carame

Sphinxa [80]

If we let x as candy A
y as candy B
a as dark chocolate in candy a
b as dark chocolate in candy b
c as caramel
d as walnut
P as profit
we have the equations:
a + c = x
2b + d = y
a + 2b ≤ 360
c ≤ 430
d ≤ 210
P = 285x + 260y

This is an optimization problem which involves linear programming. It can be solved by graphical method or by algebraic solution.
P = 285(a + c) + 260(2b +d)
If we assume a = b
Then a = 120, 2b = 240
P = 285(120 + 120) + 260(240 + 120)
P = 162000
candy A should be = 240
candy B should be = 360
