Answer:book
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3><u>The value of the first number, x, is eual to 2.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of the second number, y, is equal to -1.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of the third number, z, is equal to 8.</u></h3>
x + y + z = 9
y = x - 3
z = 2x + 4
Because we have values for y and z, we can find the exact value of x, which we can use to find the exact values for the other variables.
x + x - 3 + 2x + 4 = 9
<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>
4x + 1 = 9
<em><u>Subtract 1 from both sides.</u></em>
4x = 8
<em><u>Divide both sides by 4.</u></em>
x = 2
Now that we have a value for x, we can plug this value in to each other x value to solve for y and z.
y = 2 - 3
y = -1
z = 2(2) + 4
z = 8
Answer:
They have 48 cards.
Step-by-step explanation:
let s be the number of Shauntay's cards and j be the number of Jessica's cards.
The ratio of Shauntay's cards to Jessica's cards is 5 to 3, then
(1) 
=
After Shauntay gives Jessica 12 of her cards, both girls have the same number of cards, then
(2) s-12 =j+12.
From (2), we get s= j+24. If we put j+24 instead of s in (1) we get:
=
3×j+24×3 = 5×j From this we get;
2×j=72 and j=36
After Shauntay gives Jessica 12 of her cards, Shauntay and Jessica would have 48 cards.
The difference between 342 and 324 is different because the digits 2 and 4 are flipped.
342 and 324 are alike because they have the same amount of digits. hope that helped.
