Answer:

x = 4

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to solve the system of equation using elimination method

We have this as follows;

3x + y = 13

4x- 3y = 13

Multiply equation 1 by 3

9x + 3y = 39

4x-3y = 13

Add the two equations

13x = 52

x = 52/13

x = 4

From equation 1;

3x + y = 13

y = 13-3x

y = 13-3(4)

y = 13-12 = 1

Vivenne, John and nassim ran for 6th grade class president. Vivenne got four votes for every 3 votes that John got. Nassim got t

liq [111]

Answer:

John received 10% of the overall votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the number of votes John got = m

So, the number of votes Vivienne received = 3 times (John's share )

= 3 times m = 3 m

Also, The number of Votes Nassim received = 2 times ( Vivienne's share)

2 x (3 m) = 6 m

Total Votes in the grade 6

= Votes received by { John + Vivienne + Nassim}

= m + (3 m) + (6 m) = 10 m

Hence, the total number of students who voted in grade 6 = 10 m

$\textrm{The percentage of John's Votes } = \frac{\textrm{Number of votes John received}}{\textrm{Total number of votes }} \times 100$

= $\frac{m}{10m} \times 100 = 10$

or, The percentage of John's Votes = 10%

Hence, John received 10% of the overall votes.

A machine packs at a constant rate of 2/3 of a box every 1/2 minuet. What’s is the number of boxes per minute that’s the machine

lions [1.4K]

For this case what we can do is the following rule of three:
2/3 of a box ------> 1/2 minutes
x of a box ---------> 1 minute
Clearing x we have:
x = (1 / (1/2)) * (2/3)
Rewriting:
x = 2 * (2/3)
x = 4/3
Answer:
the number of boxes per minute that the machine packs is:
x = 4/3
