Answer:

<em>x = 2          y = 5</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that

x = y - 3

We can insert that into the equation above:

2(y-3) + y = 9

After having this equation, we can start by multiplying the numbers/variables in the parenthesis by 2.

2y - 6 + y = 9

Then add the common multiples (2y and y)

That makes:

3y - 6 = 9

We need to get 3y on a side by itself, so to do this, we can add 6 to (-6) and (9)

That makes:

3y = 15

Divide the 3 by 3 and 15 to get the y on its own:

y = 5

Now we need to find x, and to do this we can insert y into the equation:

2x + 5 = 9

Now subtract the 5 from the (5) and (9) and you'll get

2x = 4

Then you divide the 2 on both sides and get

x = 2

You can check your work by inserting x and y into the equation

2(2) + 4 = 9  

Sorry for this super long explanation, and hope this helps

Answer:

x=2 and y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps:

I will solve your system by substitution.

x=y−3;2x+y=9

Step: Solve x = y − 3 for x:

Step: Substitute y − 3 for x in 2x + y = 9:

2x+y=9

2(y−3)+y=9

3y−6=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)

3y−6+6=9+6(Add 6 to both sides)

3y=15

3y/3=15/3  (Divide both sides by 3)

y=5

Step: Substitute 5 for y in x = y − 3 :

x=y−3

x=5−3

x=2(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=2 and y=5

Mnenie [13.5K]
There aren't any functions listed to choose from, but it should look something like the following:

E= total earnings that day
h= # hours worked that day
n= # people served that day

E= 7h + 5n

substitute 6 hours in for h

E= 7(6) + 5n

E= 42 + 5n OR E= 5n + 42

Hope this helps! :)

To solve this problem you must follow the proccedure below:

 a<span>. Find the perimeter and area of the cracker remaining: 

 The perimeter of  a quarter circle is:

 P=(</span>πr/2)+2r
 P=(πx3 cm/2)+2(3 cm)
 P=10.71 cm

 The perimeter of <span>the cracker remaining is:
</span><span>
 Pt=3 cm+6 cm+3 cm+10.71 cm
 Pt=22.71 cm

 The area of a quarter circle is:

 A=</span>πr²/4
 A=π(3 cm)²/4
 A=7.06 cm²
<span>
 The area of</span><span>of the cracker remaining is:
</span><span>
 At=Area of a square-Area of quarter circle
 At=L</span>²-(πr²/4)
 At=(6 cm)²-(π(3 cm)²/4)
 At=28.93 cm²
<span>
 b. About how many bites can you get from the entire cracker?</span> 

 Number of bites=L²/(π(3 cm)²/4)
 Number of bites=5
