Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
4+3a=16
-4. -4
3a=12
/3. /3
a=4
10 x 40 = 400 so the answer is 400 pieces of chalk.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 13y = 232
12x + 7y = 218
For each choice:
a) The first equation can be multiplied by –13 and the second equation by 7 to eliminate y. So we have
- 65x - 169y = - 3016
84x + 49y = 1526
Can not eliminate x and y.
b) The first equation can be multiplied by 7 and the second equation by 13 to eliminate y. So we have
35x + 91 y = 1624
156x + 91y = 2834
Can not eliminate x and y if we ADD.
<em>(If we subtract, this is Yes)</em>
<em></em>
c) The first equation can be multiplied by –12 and the second equation by 5 to eliminate x.
-60x - 156y = - 2784
60x + 35y = 1090
The answer is YES
d) The first equation can be multiplied by 5 and the second equation by 12 to eliminate x.
25x + 65y = 1160
144x + 84y = 2616
Can not eliminate x and y
The final answer is C
Answer:
0.264
Step-by-step explanation:
The total was $29.
1. Write an equation. 24+(2.50*2)= x
2. Solve your equation using PEMDAS
*2.5*2=5
*5+24=
3. Simplify equation.
5+24=29
