Answer:

x=435 ,y=145

Step-by-step explanation:

You substitute x for 3y in this equation and get

3y+y=580

from here you simplify

4y=580

and divide 580 by 4 to get what y is

y=580/4

y=145

now since x=3y you mutiply y by 3

x=3(y)

x=3(145)

x=435

Answer:

x = 435

y = 145

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to this problem is that x = 3y. So put that into

x + y = 580                     Substitute 3y for x

3y + y = 580                   Combine like terms

4y = 580                         Divide by 4

4y / 4 = 580 / 4              Do the division

y = 145

x + y = 580                     Substitute the value for y

x + 145 = 580                 Subtract  145 from both sides

x = 580 - 145                  Combine

x = 435

Ricardo spends 8/9 hr. reading the paper. He spends 1/4 of the time reading world news and splits the remaining time equally bet
lapo4ka [179]
Total time spent reading is = 8/9 hour

He spends 1/4 of the time reading world news. That is =  1/4 * 8/9 =  2/9 hour

Splits the remaining time equally.  Remaining time =  8/9 - 2/9 =  6/9

Splitting it equally =  6/9  divided by 2 =  6/9  * 1/2 =  3/9  = 1/3

Time spent reading comic is = 1/3 hour

I hope this helps.
