To help you with it, plug-in 15 in each equation and see what you get!
Answer:
1 solution (x = 1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 2 - 3x = 3x - 4
First, combine like terms
2 - x = 3x - 4
Add 4 to both sides
6 - x = 3x
Add x to both sides
6 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
1.5 = x
Since there are 100p meters in a kilometer you divide 10500 by 1000 and you get 10.5 km
Answer:
here for answer to
Step-by-step explanation:
lol
First let’s express the total number of marbles as such:
y(yellow marbles) + r(red marbles)=23; y+r=23
now let’s express the relation of yellow marbles to red marbles:
y=2r(2 times red marbles) - 4(4 less marbles); y=2r-4
since we figured out what y equals, we can plug into the first equation we created:
(2r-4)+r=23
now solve for r:
2r-4+r=23
combine like terms
3r-4=23
add 4 to both sides
3r=27
divide both side by 3
r=9
plug r back into first equation and solve for y:
y+9=23
subtract 9
y=14
there are 9 red marbles and 14 yellow marbles!
