GIVEN
1) Females outnumber males by 3 to 2.
2) There are 1770 people in the city.
SOLUTION
Let the number of males be x and the number of females y. Therefore, the total number of people can be written to be:
If there are 3 females for every 2 males, we have that:
We can substitute equation (2) into equation (1) and solve for y:
Dividing both sides by 5, we have
There are 1062 females in the county.
It’s -3,-2 hope thiisssss helpsssss
Answer:
Simple...
you have: x-3y=18
You want to convert it into slope-intercept form or y=mx+b form-->>>
x-3y=18
Isolate the variable-->>
x-3y=18
-x -x
-3y=-x+18
Now simply divide...
-3y/-3 = -x+18/-3
y=1/3x=6
Thus, your answer.
(6, 2 )
substitute x = 5 into the equation and solve for y
6y + 8 = 20 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
6y = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )
y = 
= 2
the ordered pair is (5, 2 )
b ≤ 9 (b is less than or equal to 9)
Hope this helps! ;)
