Answer:
6 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3 times what equals 19 can be in the form of an equation as shown below. It shows that the value we are finding for is unknown, therefore it is a variable. A variable is the unknown value in an equation.
Equation: 3x = 19
With the equation in hand, we can now solve the problem easily.
3x = 19
Carry the 3 to the 19(Carry over the like terms across leaving the variable or the unknown)
x = 19÷3
x = 6.33333 or 6 1/3
To check if the answer was correct:
3 × 6 1/3 = 19
You regain the answer <em>19</em>
A company is selling books. It has to pay $500 to start printing the books, and once they have done that, the books sell at $14.99 each. How many books must they sell to make a profit?
First we would model an equation. X will be the amount of books sold, and Y will be profits (in dollars obv). They had to pay $500 before they could start selling, so we must account for that too.
This equation would be

because for every book sold, X increases by 1, increasing Y by 14.99
The answer would be 34 books sold in order to turn a profit. (500/14.99=
First of all why is there 2 similar equation connected to one another?
Second in order to solve this all you need to do is plug in the number and solve for x
For 485
85x+60=485
85x=420
X=5
Do the same thing and you get 3
First, you should solve both equations for the same variable. Since the first one is already solved for y, solve the second equation for y as well.
6y = 2x + 6 Divide both sides by 6
y =

x + 1
You can see that both lines have a slope of

.
Lines that have the same slope are
parallel lines.
The answer is -1 , because when you add a negative number to a positive number the negative number will subtract , and vise versa.
