Answer:

(0, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x - 3

y = x - 3

In the solution to the system of equations, y is the same number for both of those functions. So 3x - 3 = x - 3.

Then solve for x:

3x - 3 = x - 3

Add 3 to both sides

3x = x

Subtract x from both sides

2x = 0

Divide both sides by 2

x = 0

Now that you have x, substitute it in one of the equations:

y = 3x - 3

y = 3(0) - 3

y = -3

x is 0 and y is -3, so the solution to the equation is (0, -3)

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3x-3

y=x-3

They both equal why so you can take away the y and put them equal to each other.

3x-3=x-3

Subtract x from both sides

2x-3=-3

Add 3 to both sides

2x=0

divide 2 from both sides

x=0

The answer is 0. Hope this helps you :)

The Washington Monument in Washington, D.C., is about 556 ft. tall. A three-dimensional puzzle of the Washington Monument is 24

Set up a ratio. But first convert the height of the puzzle to feet so we are comparing the same unit of measure.

STEP 1
convert 24 inches to feet

12 inches= 1 foot

24 inches= 2 feet

STEP 2
set up ratio.

= 2 feet/556 feet or 2:556
simplify both by 2

= 1 ft/278 ft or 1:278

ANSWER: 1/278 or 1:278 (can be written either way)

Hope this helps! :)
