Answer:

y = 5/3

x = 8/3

Steps:

y = x - 1

2x + y = 7

Substitute y = x-1

(2x + x - 1 = 7)

Simplify: 3x - 1 = 7

Isolate x: 3x - 1 = 7:  x=8/3

Plug the valuse of x into the other equation (y = x- 1):    y = 8/3 - 1

8/3 - 1 = 5/3

y = 5/3

y = 5/3, x = 8/3

Cans of wood varnish come in three sizes.
Anton [14]

Answer:

The cost of 1 liter for the small can is £ 2.80, while the cost of 1 liter for the medium can is £ 2.64.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since cans of wood varnish come in three sizes, the 200 ml small can costs £ 0.56, the 500 ml medium can costs £ 1.32, and the 1 l large can costs £ 2.68, to determine the cost of 1 l for the small and medium cans the following calculation must be performed:

200 ml = 0.2 l

500 ml = 0.5 l

0.56 x 5 = 2.8

1.32 x 2 = 2.64

Thus the cost of 1 liter for the small can is £ 2.80, while the cost of 1 liter for the medium can is £ 2.64.
