Answer:

b=3, y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Label the 2 equations:

2b +6y= 42 -----(1)

2b +4y= 30 -----(2)

(1) -(2):

(2b +6y) -(2b +4y)= 42 -30

2b +6y -2b -4y= 12

2y= 12

y= 12 ÷2 <em>(</em><em>÷</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>

y= 6

Susbt. y=6 into (2):

2b +4(6)= 30

2b +24=30

2b= 30 -24 <em>(</em><em>-24</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em>o</em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>

2b= 6

b= 6 ÷2

b= 3

Answer:

y = 6, b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both equations have 2b in them, subtracting them gets you a quick result because the 2b-2b cancels out!

2b + 6y = 42

2b + 4y = 30

------------------ -

       2y = 12

         y = 6

Then 2b = 42 - 36 = 6, so b = 6/2 = 3

A pair of numbers has a GCF of 6 and a LCM of 60. What could the numbers be? Explain.
vivado [14]

Answer:

(2*3)=6; 60= (2*3)*2*5 (prime factorization)

The numbers in the parenthesis can't be taken out because they are the HCF

So just move the 2 and the 5 on both sides and you'll get two pairs that are (6,30) and (12,30)

ollegr [7]
The numbers that are divisible by 3 are:

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
that is 8 numbers divisible by 3

24-8=16 numbers NOT divisible by 3

so the probability of not picking a number divisible by 3 is 16/24


hope this helps and is right :)
