Answer:
shirts = 15 when pants = 6
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Try two others that are given
shirts / pants = 10 / 4 = 2.5
shirts / pants = 30/12 = 2.5
So shirts/pants = 2.5 = x/6
2.5 = x / 6 Multiply by 6
2.5 * 6 = x
x = 15
Answer:88
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The solution is (3, -2)
This means that x = 3 and y = -2 pair up together.
=====================================================
Explanation:
The solution is where the two lines cross. Note if we started at the origin (0,0) and moved to the right 3 units, and then down 2 units, we would arrive at the location (3, -2).
-----------------
As a way to check, we can plug x = 3 into each equation. We should get y = -2 as a result for each equation
y = (-5/3)x + 3
y = (-5/3)*3 + 3
y = -5+3
y = -2
The first equation is confirmed. Let's check the second equation
y = (1/3)x - 3
y = (1/3)*3 - 3
y = 1 - 3
y = -2
Both equations have the y value equal -2 when x = 3. Therefore, the overall solution is confirmed.
