Answer:
1 1/4 or 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 5 by 4
Divide 7 and 217 and you have 31 so there are 31 pens in each case
Subtract the equations straight down. So we'll subtract the x terms together
5x - 5x = 0x = 0
meaning the x terms effectively go away after subtraction
Then we do the y terms together in the same exact order
y-3y = -2y
Then finally the right hand side values
6 - (-5) = 6+5 = 11
All of that work done indicates we have 0x-2y = 11 which is the same as -2y = 11. Divide both sides by -2 and we end up with y = -11/2
This answer isn't listed so I'm thinking there's a typo your teacher made somewhere.
Hello!
To find the value of x, we need to solve for the value of x.
5 + 4x = 32 + 2x (subtract 2x from both sides)
5 + 2x = 32 (subtract 5 from both sides)
27 = 2x (divide both sides by 2)
x = 27/2
Therefore, none of the given x-values make this equation true.
