Answer:

x= -6, y= 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x= y + 4

2x = 3y - 2

If we replace "x" with "y+4" in the second equation we get:

2(y+4) = 3y - 2

2y + 8 = 3y - 2

2y - 3y = -2-8

-y = -10

y = 10

Now we can go back to the first equation and solve for x:

x = y + 4

x = 10 + 4 = 14

What is the weight of one half of two thirds of a sack of rice? The sack of rice weighs 99 kilograms.

Eddi Din [679]

First you need to find what 2/3 equals
to do this, take 99 divided by 3
99/3=33

if 1/3 equals 33, two thirds would be 33x2
33x2=66

now, you need to find 1/2 of 66. this can be done 2 different ways

1. 66 divided by 2 - 66/2=33
OR
2. 66 x 1/2 = 33 OR 66 x .5 = 33

The answer is 33 kilograms
