You can rewrite the second equation because you know what y equals, so you can write it as 2x + x + 3 = 9
3x + 3 = 9
- 3
3x = 6
÷ 3
x = 2
And now you use the equation of what y equals and substitute in the value of x, so y = 2 + 3
y = 5
So your final answer is A. (2, 5). I hope this helps!
If we apply the distributive law to right side of the third choice we get:-
-12x - 9 = -9 - 12x
right side = left side so infinite solutions
You can divide 1000 by 4 then multiply a number to get 2500
1000/4= 250
250 x 10 = 2500
Answer: 10 hours
There are 18 girls in the class and 6 boys.
t is the number of hours Lamar worked as a tutor
We know that he worked for 92 hours total, so he worked 92-t hours as a waiter.
So his earnings are: 7t + 8(92-t) = 736 -t dollars
This expression seems logical as if Lamar worked 0 hours as a tutor and 92 as a waiter his earnings would be 8*92 = 736
If he worked as a tutor for 92 hours it would be 7*92= 644
736-92= 644
So our expression seems to be working.
