Let q and n represent the number of quarters and nickels respectively.
q=3n and .05n+.25q=1.6 These are the conditions in mathematical terms.
To solve, use the value of q from the first equation in the second equation to get:
.05n+.25(3n)=1.6 carry out indicated multiplication on left side
.05n+.75n=1.6 combine like terms on left side
.8n=1.6 divide both sides by .8
n=2, since q=3n
q=6
So Peggy had 2 nickels and 6 quarters.
8X+6Y=12
Here's how you solve it:
Just isolate y by itself to get y-intercept form.
This is the formula: Y=MX+B
M is the slope or the number next to X in the original problem.
First:
6Y=-8X+12
Next:
divided everything by 6
Y=-4/3+2
I think the answer is A!
answer:
2x + 12 = c
step-by-step explanation:
- one time fee = $12
- each game = $2
- let x be the number of games
- c = total cost
2x + 12 = c
The answer is A
You can solve this by equation the two equations, by substitution method or elimination. Let's choose the substitution since Equation 2 has already X isolated
-take the X in equation 2 and substitute in the first equation
So, You should have 5 (5-3/2 y) -4y =7
Get y ( I'll assume you know how to simplify and find y by yourself )
y=36/23
-Now take y and substitute it in the first equation or the second equation (it doesn't really matter)
Substituting y in Equation 2:
x=5- 3/2 (36/23)
=> x= 61/23
So answer is A where (x,y) is (61/23, 36/23)
