Answer:

At the beginning, there were 2,678.26 grams of sugar in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Lisa used 880g of a container of sugar to bake a cake and 1/10 of the creaming sugar to make cookies, and she then had 3/7 of the container of sugar left, to determine how much sugar was in the container at first, the following calculation must be performed:

880 + 1 / 10X = 3 / 7X

880 + 0.1X = 0.4285X

880 = 0.4285X - 0.1X

880 = 0.3285X

880 / 0.3285 = X

2,678.26 = X

Therefore, at the beginning there were 2,678.26 grams of sugar in the container.

Solve the system using substitution:<br> y = -6x + 7<br><br> 3x – 2y = 16<br><br> helppp
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

x=-6 y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y  

 

 [2]    y = -x - 7

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    3x - 2•(-x -7) = -16

  [1]    5x = -30

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x  

  [1]    5x = - 30  

  [1]    x = - 6  

// By now we know this much :

   x = -6

   y = -x-7

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y  

   y = -(-6)-7 = -1  

Solution :

{x,y} = {-6,-1}
