Answer:
x = 3 , y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that both equations is equal to y. Set the two equations equal to each other
y = 7x - 8; y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = 5x - 2
Isolate the x. Subtract 5x and add 8 to both sides
7x (-5x) - 8 (+8) = 5x (-5x) - 2 (+8)
7x - 5x = -2 + 8
Simplify.
(7x - 5x) = (-2 + 8)
2x = 6
Isolate the x. Divide 2 from both sides
(2x)/2 = (6)/2
x = 6/2
x = 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plug in 3 for x in one of the equations.
y = 7x - 8
y = 7(3) - 8
Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
y = 7(3) - 8
y = 21 - 8
y = 13
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x = 3, y = 13 is your answer

Answer: There are 249 times Jamie takes a counter from the bag.
Explanation:
Since we have given that
Ratio of colour of red to blue to green is 1:3:7.
Number of blue counters = 68
Let the total number of times Jamie does from the bag be x.
So, According to question,
Hence, there are 249 times Jamie takes a counter from the bag.
A, 57%, because 0.40 divided by all possible outcomes, which is 0.70 because we know it will not be sunny tomorrow, is 0.57.
It is 40.682414698, or about 40.7 feet of string.
