Y = x + 1....so we sub in x + 1 for y in the other equation
2x + y = 7
2x + x + 1 = 7 ....combine like terms
3x + 1 = 7....subtract 1 from both sides
3x = 7 - 1
3x = 6 ....divide both sides by 3
x = 6/3
x = 2
y = x + 1
y = 2 + 1
y = 3
so ur solution is : (2,3)
Is your question right because you said 500 students a hundred and sixty have 320 have brown eyes?
2719/462 x 16.5 = 97.10714gallons which is approximately 97 gallons.
Let x represent the number of hamburgers sold, and (x - 55) represent the number of cheeseburgers sold.
Set up an equation:
hamburgers + cheeseburgers = total number of burgers
x + (x-55) = 445
solve for x:
2x - 55 = 445
2x = 445 + 55
2x = 500
x = 500÷2
x = 250
This means 250 hamburgers were sold on Tuesday.
Hope this helps!
