Judging by the question at hand I generated this equation.
x+y=12
x=2y
I begin this question by plugging in the x=2y into the equation for x.
So the new equation should be 3y=12. I then divide the entire equation by 3 to get y=4.
Next I plug y=4 into the equation, the new equation should be x+4=12. I then subtract 4 from both sides to get x=8.
The two numbers are :
x=8 y=4
The 3 lbs of candy is irrelevant, so we can discard that. All you need to do is divide 147 by 26, which is 5.65 pieces of candy. Each student will get 5 pieces, with a few left over.
Answer:
z=6
Step-by-step explanation:
987/z=164.5
multiply both sides by z
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute x for 6 and y for 1
which will be 6-1+6
using BODMAS
6-(1+6)
6-7= -1
The most reasonable would be grams.
