Answer: (4,-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
8y = -40
(divide by 8)
y = -5
(plug it in to one of the equations)
3x + 6*-5 = -18
3x + -30 = -18
3x = 12
x = 4

Answer:
a = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
2(a + 7) = 5a - 13
We want to bring a to one side, I will choose to bring it to the right
First, expand the bracket by multiplying 2 with a + 7
2a + 14 = 5a - 13
Bring the -13 to the left by adding 13 to both sides
2a + 14 + 13 = 5a - 13 + 13
Simplify
2a + 27 = 5a
Bring the 2a to the right by subtracting 2a from both sides
2a - 2a + 27 = 5a - 2a
Simplify
27 = 5a - 2a
27 = 3a
Bring the 3 to the left by dividing both sides by 3
27÷3 = a
Simplify
a = 9
Answer:
6x: 312
x: 52
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the deck be denoted by x then
6x: 312
There are 312 cards in 6x decks
In 1 deck x there are 312/6= 52 cards
6x: 312
6x/6: 312/6 Cancelling both sides by 6
x: 52
In ratio both the sides are divided by the same number to get equivalent fractions.
In 1 deck there are 52 cards
