When solving system equations, we can use substitution method or elimination. Today I'm using substitution method.
First name the 2 equations.
3x + y = 3 (1)
x + y = 2 (2)
Now pick one equation and express one algebra in forms of the other.
From (2),
x = 2 - y (3)
Now substitute (3) into (1),
3(2-y) + y = 3
6 - 3y + y = 3
6 - 2y = 3
6 - 3 = 2y
y = 1.5
Now substitute y = 1.5 into (2)
x + 1. 5 = 2
x = 2 - 1.5
x = 0.5
Therefore the answer is x = 0.5 and y = 1.5
Answer:
The answer is 2/5 or 5.25
Step-by-step explanation:
5 sections so out of 5 and it said A or B so it is 2/5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let O=number of oranges and A=number of apples.
O+A=20
O=20-A
1.25A+0.95O=22.60, using O found above makes this become
1.25A+0.95(20-A)=22.60
1.25A+19-0.95A=22.60
0.3A+19=22.60
0.3A=3.6
A=12, since O=20-A
O=20-12
O=8
So she bought 8 oranges and 12 apples. The question really only asks for the number of apples bought.
12 apples were bought.
Cage.....dog travel kit..... shelter.....pound.... it really depends on what you mean by dog kennel.
4 boys have brown hair because 1/2 of 24 is 12 and 1/3 of 12 is 4
