Answer:
1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
type in your calculator:
-1.5+2.75 OR 2.75-1.5
you should get the same answer
If you divide 537 in to 12 groups. each group would have 44 cookies and you would have 9 left.
Let x be the number of weeks; therefore, the two linear equations are
Where T stands for the punches on the tea punch card and C for the punches on the coffee punch card.
Solving by substitution. Set T=C, then
Thus, substitute the value of x=3 into the first equation,
Thus, after 3 weeks, Josiah will have the same number of punches on each card, and he will have 23 punches on each card.
Answer:
[12, 15]
Step-by-step explanation:
{6x + 5y = 147
{8x + 4y = 156
-¾[8x + 4y = 156]
{6x + 5y = 147
{-6x - 3y = -117 ← New Equation
________________
2y = 30
___ ___
2 2
y = 15 [Plug this back into both equations to get the x-coordinate of 12]; 12 = x
So, using the Elimination Method, what I did here was took the bottom equation and multiplied it by -¾, turning 8x to -6x, canceling out all <em>x-terms</em><em>.</em><em> </em>It does not matter which variable you choose to eliminate, as long as you know what you are doing.

You are doing 133 divided by 6 to give you 55
