Answer:

x=3 , y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 12

4x - 3y = 6

+_________

2x + 4x + 3y - 3y = 12 + 6

6x = 18

x = 18/6

x = 3

Now, we can find ''y'' :

4x - 3y = 6

plug in 3 for ''x'' then find y

4.3 - 3y = 6

12 - 3y = 6

3y = 6

y = 2

Hope this helps ^-^

there are 24 marbles in a bag: 2/16 of the marbles are red, 1/8 of the marbles are blue, 1/4 of the marbles are yellow, 1/3 of t

Roman55 [17]

Answer: 3 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, 6 yellow marbles, 8 black marbles, 4 silver marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

I know these are the correct number of marbles because I set up these numbers as fractions and solved for x.

For examples, 2/16 of the marbles are red. 2/16=x/24

You would do this because we are trying to find the number of marbles that are red out of the 24 marbles.

Next, we would do 24 divided by 16= 1.5 Then 1.5 times 2=3

You would follow this rule for each fraction of marbles in order to find the true number of marbles out of 24.

Solve |2x - 5| = 4 I dont know what you solve for

ICE Princess25 [194]

Hello!

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{x = 1/2, 9/2}$

|2x - 5| = 4

Solve for the negative and positive expressions:

2x - 5 = 4

2x = 9

x = 9/2

------------

-(2x - 5) = 4

-2x + 5 = 4

-2x = -1

x = 1/2.

Therefore, the solutions are x = 1/2 and 9/2.

Meg is 6 years older than Victor. Meg's age is 2 years less than five times Victor's age. The equations below model the relation

Verdich [7]

Since no possible correct method is posted, I will suggest a couple.

Method 1: guess and check

Works well for simple problems involving integers like this one.

Victor's age must be zero or greater than one, say one.

Guess v=1, find m=v+6=7, check m=5v-2=5-2=3 no good.

we need to make v bigger

Guess v=2, find m=v+6=2+6=8, check m=5v-2=5*2-2=8 ✔

So v=2, m=8.

Method 2:

Solve the system of two equations.

since the left-hand sides is m in both equations, and since m=m, we just have to equate the right-hand sides to solve for v.

5v-2=v+6

Solve for v

5v-v = 6+2

4v=8

v=2,

so again, v=2, m=v+6=2+6=8.
