Step-by-step explanation:
I will solve your system by substitution.
(You can also solve this system by elimination.)
4x+y=17;4x−3y=−3
Step: Solve4x+y=17for y:
4x+y+−4x=17+−4x(Add -4x to both sides)
y=−4x+17
Step: Substitute−4x+17foryin4x−3y=−3:
4x−3y=−3
4x−3(−4x+17)=−3
16x−51=−3(Simplify both sides of the equation)
16x−51+51=−3+51(Add 51 to both sides)
16x=48
16/x = 48/16
(Divide both sides by 16)
x=3
Step: Substitute 3 for x in y=−4x+17:
y=−4x+17
y=(−4)(3)+17
y=5(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Answer:
x=3 and y=5
Answer:
gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering she waters her plants with 25 1/2 gallons i.e 51/2
and with the new system, she does it with 19 3/4 i.e 79/4
taking the difference:
=
gallons per day
For 30 days:
30 x
= 172.5 or
gallons
Answer:
$2.85
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add the bill up ($8.70 + $10.30 = 19). So now you need to find what 15% of $19 is...To find the percentage of something you need to turn it into a decimal, 0. (whatever the percentage number is). So in this case, 19 times 0.15, which is a tip of $2.85.
