Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
3 is the only number here with factors of itself (3) and 1
Mult. the 2nd eqn by 6 and then add this "new" equation to the 1st given eqn:
-6x + y = -2
6x -18y = 54
--------------------
-17y = 52, or y = -52/17. Subst. this value of y into either equation to find the value of x.
All we need to do is to divide August and September rainfall measurements into two equal halves and then substract 0.6 from one of them and add 0.6 to the other one.
6.2 ÷ 2 = 3.1
3.1 - 0.6 = 2.5
3.1 + 0.6 = 3.7
It's said that in August there was 0.6 inch more rainfall, so the bigger value (3.7 inches) is for August and the smaller value (2.5 inches) is for September.
Answer: 960 calories
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Each hamburger has 50 more calories than each order of fries
Suppose each order of fries has
calories
so, hamburger has
calories
There are total of 1700 calories available. Thus, we can write

So, each order of fries has
calories
For 3 orders, it is
calories
