Answer:

candles = $400

matches = $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost of candles = $c

Let cost of matches = $m

c = 20 m (20 times m)

c + m = 420

20m + m = 420

21 m = 420

m = 20

c = 20 (20) = 400

  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

y = -23(x + 9) + 4

y = 0

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute in <em>y</em>:                                                                                                  0 = -23(x + 9) + 4
  2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4 on both sides:                        -4 = -23(x + 9)
  3. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -23 on both sides:                                4/23 = x + 9
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 9 on both sides:                        -203/23 = x
  5. Rewrite:                                                                                                             x = -203/23
