Answer: Jack has 33 stamps and Dylan has 13 stamps .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of stamps Jack has and the number of stamps Dylan y.

x-y=20----------------(1)\\\\ x+y=46-----------------(2)

Adding equation (1) and (2), we get

2x=66\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{66}{2}=33

From (1), we have

33-y=20\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=33-20=13

Hence, Jack has 33 stamps and Dylan has 13 stamps .

Answer:

The number of Jack's stamps is 33 and Dylan's stamps is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of Jack's stamps

y -----> the number of Dylan's stamps

we know that

x+y=46 ----> equation A

x=y+20 -----> equation B

Solve by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

(y+20)+y=46

2y=46-20

2y=26

y=13 stamps

Fond the value of x

x=y+20 -----> x=13+20=33 stamps

therefore

The number of Jack's stamps is 33 and Dylan's stamps is 13

Find the solutions for this polynomial equation 3(x − 2)(x2 − 9)(x + 7) = 0
kherson [118]

Answer: If the x2-9 is x^2-9, then this is the answer. If not and it's supposed to be 2x then the answer is x=2 or x=−7 or x=9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x−2)(x2−9)(x+7)=0

3x4+15x3−69x2−135x+378=0

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.

3(x−2)(x+3)(x−3)(x+7)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

x−2=0 or x+3=0 or x−3=0 or x+7=0

x=2 or x=−3 or x=3 or x=−7

PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! PLEASE PUT X AND Y PLOT POINTS! x-3y=3 2x+9y=11
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

( x, y ) = ( 4, 1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3y = 3

2x +9y = 11

1. substitute the value of x

   x= 3 + 3y

   2x + 9y = 11

2. solve equation

   2 (3 + 3y) +9y = 11

3. substitute the value of y

  y = 1/3

4. solve equation

  x = 3 + 3 x 1/3

   x = 4

5. check solution

 (x, y)  = ( 4, 1/3 )

 check  x ---->  4 - 3 x 1/3 = 3

  check y ------> 2 x 4 + 9 x 1/3 = 11

    for x----> 3=3

     for y----> 11=11
