Answer:
x = 1.5
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this system of equation using the substitution methods we say let
2x+3y=12................................... equation 1
y=x+1.5..................................... equation 2
substitute equation 2 into equation 1
2x+3y=12................................... equation 1
2x + 3( x + 1.5) = 12
2x + 3x + 4.5 = 12
5x + 4.5 = 12
collect the like terms
5x = 12 - 4.5
5x = 7.5
divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 5
5x/5 = 7.5/5
x = 1.5
put x = 1.5 into equation 2
y=x+1.5..................................... equation 2
y = 1.5 + 1.5
y = 3
therefore the value of x = 1.5 and y = 3 respectively.
Answer:
2 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
8 5/6 + 2 3/4 = 8 10/12 + 2 9/12 = 10 19/12 = 10 + 1 7/12 = 11 7/12
13 12/12 - 11 7/12 = 2 5/12
15f -8f+ 13= 55
⇒ 7f+ 13= 55
⇒ 7f= 55- 13
⇒ 7f= 42
⇒ f= 42/7
⇒ f=6
Final answer: f=6~
