Answer:
y = 3, x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x – 3y = 6
5x = 6 + 3y
x = (6 + 3y)/5
3x + 4y= 21
3x = 21 - 4y
x = (21-4y)/3
Using simultaneous equations:
(21-4y)/3 = (6 + 3y)/5
--> 105-20y = 18 + 9y
29y = 87
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+3x=12+4
8x=16
x=16÷8
x=2
The candle was 13 inches tall when it was first lit. It burns at a speed of 1.5 in. every hour. After burning for 6 hours it will be 4 inches tall.
Answer:
w=4
Step-by-step explanation:
2(48)+2(8w)+2(6w)=208
1) Start by Distributing the value outside of the parenthesis:
96+16w+12w=208
2) Combine alike terms:
96+28w=208
3) Subtract 96 from both sides:
28w=112
4)Divide both sides by 28 to isolate w:
w=4
