Answer:
1. $8.
2. 48 counters.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. A pair of socks cost 20 - 2(6)
= $8.
2. let the number of counters in Box A and Box be be x.
Then the number of counters in Box B after the transfer is x + 1/2 x.
x + 1/2 x = 72
1.5 x = 72
x = 72 / 1.5
= 48.
Answer:
No Solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
I will solve your system by substitution.
3y−3=3x; −3x+3y=−57
Step: Solve 3y−3=3x for y:
3y−3+3=3x+3 (Add 3 to both sides)
3y=3x+3
(3y/3=3x+3)/3
(Divide both sides by 3)
y=x+1
Step: Substitute x+1 for y in −3x+3y=−57:
−3x+3y=−57
−3x+3(x+1)=−57
3=−57 (Simplify both sides of the equation)
3+(−3)=−57+(−3) (Add -3 to both sides)
0=−60
