31,
because when you divide 42 and 12 to get the other two sides you get 3.5 and
3.5+3.5+12+12=31
Answer:
Original equation: C-21=16
Add 21 to both sides: C=37
Hope this helps!
I'm not entirely sure about some of these because there could be multiple answers, i think. i'll just leave the ones i can't help you with blank.
1) Begin to (isolate) the (variable) by eliminating the (constant). To eliminate the constant, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___+___=___)
2) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing in the opisite side of the (equal sign).
3) Finish (isolating) the (variable) by eliminating the (coefficient). To eliminate the coefficient, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___x___=___,
4) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing on the opposite side of the (equal sign).
5) Check your answer by (plugging) it in or the _____.
honestly, i find it really amusing that they found a way to break a TWO-step equation into 5 steps ?? but i hope this helps a little!!
Amount of money collected in the 2-day fundraiser is represented by the following equations:
- 12x + 4y = 152 .................. (i)
- 32x + 12y = 420 .................. (ii)
where x is the cost of a chicken lunch and y is the cost of a vegetarian lunch
Multiplying (i) with 3 and subtracting it from (ii)
36x + 12y - (32x + 12y) = 456 - 420
⇒ 4x = 36
⇒ x = 9
Put value of x in (i)
⇒ 12 × 9 + 4y = 152
⇒ 108 + 4y = 152
⇒ 4y = 44
⇒ y = 11
Hence, cost of the vegetarian meal is 11.
