Because since 17 can only be multiplied by it's self and one that's what the box is showing
To solve this equation we must first plug in 5 for x.

<span> (5 - 4x)
</span>↓

(5 - 4 · 5)
The next step would be to multiply 4 by 5 to get rid of the parenthesis within our main parenthesis.

(5 - 4 · 5)

(5 - 20)
The next step would be to subtract both of the numbers within the parenthesis.

(-15)
Now we must multiply.
-

· 15 = -

-

Now we simplify our answer to get our final answer.
-5
x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
x + y = 12
<span>14x + 10y = 140
lets multiply the first equation by -10 and then add it to the second equation:
-10x - 10y = -120
</span>14x + 10y = <span>140
</span>-----------------------
4x + 0 = 20
x = 20/4
x = 5
then substitute in the original equation:
x + y = <span>12
</span>5 + y = <span>12
</span>y = 12 - 5
y = 7
therefore there were 5 adults and 7 children

Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Zendaya has 5656 yards of wood
Each rack need 1616 yards
Number of racks that can be formed using 5656 yards are

3.5 represents 3 racks as 0.5 racks is insignificant
Therefore, 3 racks can be built from 5656 yards
