Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Set up equations (L= Lisa; M = Maria; A = April; J = Jim)</em>
L = 12M
A = 2J
<em>Substitute x for Maria and 6x for Jim</em>
L = 12x
A = 2(6x) = 12x
<em>So, you get:</em>
Maria = x
Jim = 6x
Lisa = 12x
April = 12x
Answer:
X=3, y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + y = 14 equation 1
y=5 equation 2
3x + 5 = 14. substitute value of y from equation 2 into equation 1
3x=9
x-3
You have to do this 32-14=12
One piece is 14” and the second one is 12”
0.7x-1.4=-3.5
Add 1.4 to both sides:
0.7x=-2.1
Divide 0.7 to both sides:
x=-3
