ANSWER
The solution is
x=-3,y=-2
EXPLANATION
First equation
3x – 3y = –3
Second Equation:
5x – y = –13
Multiply the second equation by 3 to get:
Third equation:
15x-3y=-39
Subtract the first equation from the third equation:
Divide both sides by 12,
Put x=-3 into the first equation:
Group like terms,
The solution is
x=-3,y=-2
Answer:
x = 6 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
10+3(x+2)=36
10+3x+6=36 Solve inside the parenthesis.
16+3x=36 Combine like terms.
-16 -16 Subtract 16 from both sides.
3x/3=20/3 Divide both sides by 3.
x=6 2/3 The answer is x= 6 2/3, or 6.66666666666667

Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure if this is right but you can set up an equation and solve to find Maggie's age:
Maggie's brother's age = b
Maggie's age = m
b = 12 - 3m
44 = 12-3m
12-3m = 44
-12 -12
-3m = 32
÷ 3 ÷3
m = 10.67
So this would be Maggie's age

Answer:
The price of one pound of bell peppers is $0.6.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is equivalent to the following:
<em>"if 10 oranges cost $20, how much does 1 orange cost? "</em>
and the answer to that question is:
price of 1 orange = $20/ 10 oranges = $2 per orange.
Put simply, we divided the total price by the total number of items, and we shall do the same thing for the case of bell peppers:
price of 1 pound = $1.25/ 2.5 pounds = $0.5/ pound.
The price for 1 pound of bell peppers is $0.5.
