February because it is the least amount of numbers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
so we do 2x+5+x-3+3x+1=39
6x+3=39
6x=36
divide by 6 and then x=6
Answer:
(-3, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
{3x=7y=5
{5x-2y=-19
solve....
maybe it was 3x + 7y = 5
and 5x - 2y = -19
2*(3x + 7y = 5)
7*(5x - 2y = -19)
-------------
6x + 14y = 10
35x -14y = -133
41x = -123
x = -3
y = ...
5*(-3) - 2y = -19
-15 - 2y = -19
2y = 4
y = 2
(-3, 2)
Answer:
4 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
36 erasers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of erasers be e
let number of rulers be r
We can write:
e + r = 70
and
After giving away, he has
Erasers: 2/3e
Rulers: r - 10
These two are equal, so we can write and solve:
2/3e = r - 10
2/3e + 10 = r
Putting this in initial equation, we have:
e + (2/3e + 10) = 70
5/3e + 10 = 70
5/3 e = 60
e = 36
And rulers is:
r = 2/3(36) + 10 = 34
Hence, he had 36 erasers in the beginning
