Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if she uses 16, you divide that by 4 which is 4/1. therefore, when you remove 4 (3)= 12 out of the 16, you are left with 4 gallons of gas

Larry bought 12 containers of pasta salad for a school picnic. Each container held the same number of ounces of salad. Students
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

a) Amount of pasta remaining ≤ p(12 - 8)

b) Amount of pasta remaining ≤ 4p

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of pasta in one container = p

Let y represent the amount of pasta that is left.

Since the students eat 8 containers worth of pasta out of 12 pasta containers

But we weren't told that the students did not eat out of the 4 remaining pasta containers

y ≤ p(12 - 8)

where y = p(12 - 8) if the students did not touch the remaining 4 containers.

b) Using the distributive property

p(12 - 8) = 12p - 8p

y ≤ 12p - 8p

y ≤ 4p

Describe the process
aliina [53]

Answer:

x = 1

y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = 15

Step 1: Move 5x on the other side by subtracting it from both sides

y = 15 - 5x

2x + y = 12

Step 2: Move 2x on the other side by subtracting it from both sides

y = 12 - 2x

Since y = y, that means 15 - 5x = 12 - 2x

Step 3: Add 5x to both sides

15 = 12 + 3x

Step 4: Subtract 12 from both sides

3 = 3x

Step 5: Divide both sides by 3

x = 1

y = 12 - 2x

Step 6: Plug in 1 for x

y = 12 - 2(1)

Step 7: Multiply 2 by 1

y = 12 - 2

Step 8: Subtract 2 from 12

y = 10
