Answer:
3rd group of possible answers is the correct set
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the three points in the 3rd line of possible answers is a solution of the given equation, as can be verified by substitution:
If x = -2, y = -8(-2) = +16
If x = 3, y = -8(3) = -24
If x = -4, y = -8(-4) = +32
Answer:
x= 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Mario:
12 stamps per month
Since January
Karen :
18 stamps per month
Starts on july
Number of stamps collected by Mario till the end of June :
12 * 6 = 72 stamps
For Mario :
72 + 12x
For karen:
18x
Where x is the number of months after karen starts :
Equate both equations
72 + 12x = 18x
72 = 18x - 12x
72 = 6x
x = 72/6
x = 12
After 12 months
Number of months after karen starts, will they have same amount of stamp
solve this answer by using substitution. set the first equation to x=-y+4 then substitute -y+4 for x in the second equation.
2(-y+4) + 3y=0
-2y+8 + 3y=0
y+8=0
y=-8
now use -8 and solve for x
x+(-8)=4
x=12
