The answer is: y = -2x+12
4x+2y=24=
4x-4x+2y=24-4x=
2y=24-4x
Divide each piece by 2=
2y/2=24/2-4x/2
y=12-2x
But, slope intercept form is y=mx + b so you must put the second part in reverse, making the answer to the equation be y=-2x+12
(Don't forget the - on -2)
Jamil has already 6 3/4 cups of butter.
He need 12. SO in order to get the needed butter, we subtract 6 3/4 to 12.
= 12 - 6 3/4
= 11 4/4 - 6 3/4
= 5 1/4
So Jamil needs 5 1/4 cups of butter to achieve the 12 cups.
x = 3 + y Eqn(1)
y = -2x + 9 Eqn(2)
Let us solve the system of equations with the substitution method
x - 3 = y (Subtracting 3 from both sides of the Eqn(1))
Replacing y = x - 3 in Eqn (2), we have:
x - 3 = -2x + 9
x = -2x + 9 + 3 (Adding 3 to both sides of the equation)
x + 2x = 9 + 3 (Adding 2x to both sides of the equation)
3x = 12 ( Adding like terms)
x = 12/3 (Dividing by 3 on both sides of the equation)
x = 4
Replacing x=4 in Eqn(1), we have:
4 = 3 + y
4 - 3 = y (Subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation)
y=1
The answers are:
x= 4 and y=1
Answer:
x <-3
Step-by-step explanation:
15 <-5x
divide both sides by 5 but since the coefficient of x is negative after dividing the sign changes.
x <-3
