I haven’t done this in a while, but I believe that the “of” in the equation means multiply so you do 3/4 x 1/3 to get 3/12 (simplified to 1/4)!!
Answer:
x = 5/3
y = 14/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y=4x−2
y=x+3
Since they are both equal to y, we can set them equal to each other
4x-2 = x+3
Subtract x from each side
4x-2-x = x+3-x
3x-2 =3
Add 2 to each side
3x-2+2 = 3+2
3x =5
Divide each side by 3
3x/3 =5/3
x = 5/3
Now we need to find y
y = x+3
y =5/3+3
y = 5/3+9/3
y = 14/3
Answer:one yard costs $15 (x=15)
Step-by-step explanation:
300-60=240. So, 16 yards=$240
16x=240
240/16=15
X=15 (one yard costs $15)
