You can subtract the 2x to make it -y=-2x-2 and add the x to make it -2y=x+4. for elimination method multiply the equation (-2)-y=-2x-2. Hope this helps. You can also do substitution method
I believe you meant to say that if Samantha bought 510 pounds of hamburger, how much will she pay?
Now from the information we already have, we know that 3 pounds of hamburger will cost 6 dollars.
The next thing we need to know is how much one pound of hamburger will cost. This will help us calculate how much the rest will cost.
we now form an equation to assist us.
3 = 6
1= x
(where x represents the unknown price of one pound of hamburger)
Now we must cross-multiply:
3 * x = 6 x 1
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2
therefore one pound of hamburger costs 2 dollars.
Now, If one pound costs 2 dollars, how about 510 pounds?
We simply multiply: 510 x 2 = 1,020
Therefore Samantha will pay 1, 020 dollars for 510 pounds of hamburger.

Answer:
67%
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost plus markup = selling price.
Here, the cost was $30 and the selling price was $50. Subtracting $30 from $50, we get $20, which was the dollar amount of the markup.
We now compare this $20 to the original cost ($30):
$20
------- * 100^ = 67%
$30
The markup, as a percentage, was 67%.
