You do 6/4 to find that each friend gets 3/2 or 1.5 apples
<span>2x+3y=3
</span><span>-3x-2y=8
3y=3-2x
-2y = 8+3x
y = 1 - 2x/3
y = -4 - 3x/2
</span>1 - 2x/3 = -4 - 3x/2
5 = - 3x/2 + 2x/3
5 = -9x/6 + 4x/6
5 = -5x/6
x = 5 * 6/-5
x = -6
No plug it in.
<span>2x+3y=3 ; x = -6
-12 + 3y = 3
3y=3+12
3y=15
y = 5
So </span>x = -6 and y = 5
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's look at the factors of each of these numbers.
25
1,25
5,5
30
1,30
2,15
3,10
5,6
The greatest common factor between these is 5. Therefore, we divide 25+30 by 5 and put the 5 on the outside.
5(5+6).
This has the same value but it is just written differently.
Have a wonderful day! :D
alright then, 12x + 17 = 66! we started with 17 and there is twelve months with x amount of inches grown plus the already 17 that equals the total 66
so it is 12x + 17 = 66
