5x+3y=58
5x-3y=22
(3y gets cancelled bc 3y-3y=0, then add 5x with 5x, so you're left with)
10x=80, (divide both sides by 10)
x=8
Now we look for y. So choose one formula from the two (let's say 5x + 3y=58)
Substitute x for 8 so it will look like---- 5(8)+3y=58
Multiply 5*8--- so you get -- 40+3y=58
Subtract 40 from both sides and you're left with 3y=18
divide both sides by 3
you get y=6
In conclusion, x=8 and y=6 hence, (8,6)
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
the question translates to asking how many times does 7/8 fit in 21, so 21 divided by 7/8.
when we divide by a fraction, we can multiply by it's inverse, so 21 divided by 7/8, is 21 multiplied by 8/7. so:
21×8/7 = (21×8)/7 = (21/7)×8 = 3×8 = 24
Answer:
x = 350 gallons (amt of 60% solution that must be added)
Step-by-step explanation:
Amt of 60% solution = x gallons ; Amt of active ingredient = 0.6x gallons
Amt of 15% solution = 100 gallons ; Amt of active ingredient = 15 gallons
Amt of 50% solution = 100+x gallons ; Amt of active = 50 + 0.5x gallons
EQUATION:
Active ingredient: 0.60x + 15 = 50 + 0.50x
0.10x = 35
x = 350 gallons (amt of 60% solution that must be added)
