Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by dividing each side by 4.

You get 18/4 or 4.5.

m+3=4.5

Now subtract 3 to each side.

m=1.5

You and your friend collect 180 cans for a food drive. The ratio of cans you collected to cans your friend collected is 4 to 5.

marissa [1.9K]

Are you looking for the number of cans you and your friend each collected? If yes, here is the solution:

Let x be the number of cans.

4x + 5x = 180
9x = 180
9x/9 = 180/9 (divide both sides of the equation by 9)
x = 20

Now, substitute the values:
4(20) + 5(20) = 180
80 + 100 = 180
180 = 180

Therefore, you collected 80 cans and your friend collected 100 cans.

$x-2y=5 \\
3x-5y=8 \\ \\
\hbox{solve the first equation for x:} \\
x-2y=5 \ \ \ |+2y \\
x=2y+5 \\ \\
\hbox{substitute 2y+5 for x in the second equation:} \\
3(2y+5)-5y=8 \\
6y+15-5y=8 \\
y+15=8 \ \ \ |-15 \\
y=-7 \\ \\
x=2y+5=2 \times (-7)+5=-14+5=-9 \\ \\
\boxed{(x,y)=(-9,-7)}$
