lions = x

 monkeys = 3x ( 3 times as many )

3x +x = 24

4x = 24

x = 24/4

x = 6

6 lions

6*3 = 18 monkeys

Y=-3x<br> y=6x-9 in substitution method
Anna007 [38]
The two equations given in the question are
y = - 3x
And
y = 6x - 9
Let us now substitute the value of y from the first equation to the second equation, we get
y = 6x - 9
- 3x = 6x - 9
-3x - 6x = - 9
- 9x = - 9
Multiplying both sides of the equation by -1 we get
9x = 9
x = 9/9
   = 1
Now let us put the value of x in the first equation, we get
y = - 3x
   = - (3 * 1)
   = - 3

What is the answer to the variable x in the multi-step problem 8x-6=2x-6+6x
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

8x−6=2x−6+6x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8x−6=2x−6+6x

8x+−6=2x+−6+6x

8x−6=(2x+6x)+(−6)(Combine Like Terms)

8x−6=8x+−6

8x−6=8x−6

Step 2: Subtract 8x from both sides.

8x−6−8x=8x−6−8x

−6=−6

Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.

−6+6=−6+6

0=0
