So we have 2 variables here: tacos and orders of nachos.
When we translate the paragraphs into equation:
Now, in this situation we can make use the elimination method by converting 3n to -27n.
Add both equations:
So we find that one taco costs $2.75.
We can plug this into any of the first two equations to find n:
So one order of nachos cost $1.40.
Answer:
y = -4
Explanation:
The initial expression is:
-13 = 4y + 3
So, we need to substract 3 from both sides of the equation:
-13 - 3 = 4y + 3 - 3
-16 = 4y
Then, dividing both sides by 4, we get:
-16/4 = 4y/4
-4 = y
Therefore, the solution of the system is y = - 4.
THEOREM:
<u>Same Side Interior Angles Theorem</u>:– If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the same side interior angles are supplementary.
ANSWER:
By same side interior angles theorem,
∠4 + 123° = 180°
∠4 = 180° - 123°
∠4 = 57°.
Answer:
Natalie is 15
Fred is 24
Step-by-step explanation:
You would first create equations to represent the problem. You would then solve for a variable (I chose to solve for y). I subtracted each equation from each other which helped me isolate y, which equaled 15. I then substituted y for 15 which allowed me to isolate x, which gave me 24.
(the equations)
x + y = 39
x + 3y = 69
(solving for y)
x + 3y = 69 - x + y = 39
x-x +3y -y = 69 - 39
2y = 30
y = 15
(solving for x)
x + 15 = 39
x +15 -15 = 39 -15
x = 24
