Answer:

<h2>Amount of ounces of candy left = 22ounces</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of halloween candy bought by Jack = 5pounds

Amount he gave trick = 3pounds

Amount jack ate = 10ounces

Before we can determine the amount of halloween candy that Jack has left, we need to convert the pounds to ounces in order to make the units consistent.

given 1pound = 16ounces

5pounds = 16* 5 ounces

5pounds = 80ounces

Also;

3pounds = 16*3 ounces

3pounds = 48ounces

Total amount of halloween used up by Jack = 48ounces + 10ounces

= 58ounces

Amount of ounces of candy left = Total amount of candy bought -amount used up

Amount of ounces of candy left = 80ounces - 58ounces

Amount of ounces of candy left = 22ounces

Solve the following system of equations.
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

(2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure if you meant the first equation to be y or -y.  I solved it as y.

y = x-5                       -x -3y =7

I am going to take the second equation and write it as x =

-x - 3y = 7  Give equation

-x = 3y +7   Add 3y to both sides

x = -3y-7  Multiplied each term in the equation by -1 so that x could be positive

I am going to substitute -3y-7 for x in the first equation up above

y = x - 5

y = -3y -7 - 5  Substitute -3y-7 for x

y = -3y -12  Combined -7-5

4y = -12  Added 3y to both sides

y = -3  Divided both sides by 4.

I now know that y is -3, I will plug that into x = -3y-7 to solve for x

x = -3(-3) -7

x = 9-7   A negative times a negative is a positive

x = 2
