Answer: x = 0 y = –3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this system by substitution.

use the second equation as a value for x.

Then substitute that value in place of x in the first equation and solve for y.

6x - 5y = 15 becomes

6(y + 3) - 5y = 15 Distribute 6 × parentheses

6y + 18 - 5y = 15 combine like terms

6y -5y + 18 = 15

y + 18 = 15 Subtract 18 from both sides.

y =15 -18

y = –3

Use this value for y in either equation to solve for x

6x - 5(-3) = 15

6x + 15 = 15 Subtract 15 from both sides, divide by 6 (seems silly!)

x = 0

OR in he second equation,

x = -3 + 3

Again, x = 0

Solve 8x − 2(x + 1) = 7x + 8. (5 points) 6 −6 −10 10

sesenic [268]

First, simplify the equation.
8x - 2x - 2 = 7x + 8
Now subtract 8 on both sides to get rid of the one on the right side.
8x - 2x - 10 = 7x
Solve the left side.
6x - 10 = 7x
Subtract 6x from both sides.
-20 = x
Therefore, x = -20.

Bruce have $35 which is greater than amount to be paid i.e. $30.87 . So , Bruce have enough money to buy the game .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have , Bruce saved $ 35.00 to buy a new video game. The game's original price was $ 42.00 , but it was on sale for 30% off. The sales tax rate was 5%. We need to find Did Bruce have enough money to buy the game .Let's find out:

We have , Bruce saved $ 35.00 to buy a new video game . The game's original price was $ 42.00 , but it was on sale for 30% off. i.e.

Price = $Original price - \frac{Original-price(30)}{100}$

⇒ $42-\frac{42(30)}{100}$

⇒ $42-\frac{1260}{100}$

⇒ $42-12.6$

⇒ $29.4$

Now, The sales tax rate was 5%. So , total amount to be paid is :

⇒ $29.4 + \frac{29.4(5)}{100}$

⇒ $29.40 +1.47$

⇒ $30.87$

Bruce have $35 which is greater than amount to be paid i.e. $30.87 . So , Bruce have enough money to buy the game .

Find the area of this shape please!!

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

I got you. The answer is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find the area of the big rectangle as if the missing piece wasn't there. So do 5 x 10 which is 50 cm. Then you calculate the area of the second rectangle (aka the missing piece). The dimensions of the missing piece is 2 x 4. 2 x 4 = 8, so the missing piece has an area of 8 cm. Finally, you subtract the area of the missing piece from the area of the shape.

50 - 8 = 42

The area of the shape is 42 cm.

Hope this helps
