Answer:
(x,y) = (-1,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equations
y = 2x + 3
x - y = -2
substitute the value of y in the first equation into the second
x - (2x + 3) = -2
x -2x - 3 = -2
-x - 3 = -2
add 3 to both sides
-x = -2 + 3
- x = 1
Divide both sides by -1
x = -1
Substitute into the first equation
y = 2(-1) + 3
y = -2 + 3
y = 1
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The line is solid, so eliminate A and D.
Also, the line is shaded below, so this eliminates C.
500= 120+20x, where x is weeks
Subtract 120 from both sides
380=20x
Divide both sides by 20
19=x
19 weeks*7 days per week= 133 days
Final answer: 133 days
Answer:
x= -674
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x and check: x + 5 = 3
Solution
Solve for x and check: - 3x = 12
Dividing each side by -3, we obtain
Another way of solving the equation
3x - 4 = 7x + 8
would be to first subtract 3x from both sides obtaining
-4 = 4x + 8,
then subtract 8 from both sides and get
-12 = 4x.
Now divide both sides by 4 obtaining
- 3 = x or x = - 3
Solve for c: 3(x + c) - 4y = 2x - 5c
First remove parentheses.
Remember, abx is the same as 1abx.
We divide by the coefficient of x, which in this case is ab.
Answer:
23 friends
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of friends she has = x
Total number of gum = 47 pieces
She gave 2 each to her friends, hence:
2x + 1 = 47
2x = 47 - 1
2x = 46
x = 46/2
x = 23
Therefore, the number of friends she has is 23
