2x + y = 3
x = 2y - 1
solve for y in the first equation;
2x + y = 3
y = 3 - 2x
x = 2y - 1
x = 2(3 - 2x) - 1
x = -4x + 5
solve for x;
x = -4x + 5
x + 4x = 5
5x = 5
x = 1
solve for y;
y = 3 - 2x
y = 3 - 2(1)
y = 1
the answer is: x = 1, y = 1
hope this helps, God bless!
So in order to answer your question we calculate 40 - 22 wich gives us the answer of 18, so now we can say that 4/5 of apples weight 18 so now 18 / 4 = 4,5; 4,5 * 5 = 22,5 wich is the weight of apples you can put in the box, to know the answer we deduct the greatest weight of apples only from the weight of the box with those apples so, 40 - 22,5 = 17,5
so the answer to your question is 17,5
i hope i helped you

Answer:
7x+6 = 5(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
x represents Harry's age now, so 7x represents Nick's age now. (Nick is 7 times as old as Harry.)
In 6 years, Harry's age will be x+6.
In 6 years, Nick's age will be 7x+6, which is 5 times Harry's age at that time, 5(x+6). Hence an appropriate equation is ...
... 7x+6 = 5(x+6)
_____
Please note that finding the value of x does not give the answer to the question. We are asked for Harry's age in 6 years, so the answer is x+6 (=18).
