Answer:
y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
use elimination by making the ys opposite in value and eliminating them from the equation so there is only variable:
-3x+2y=6
2(4x-y=2)
-3x+2y=6
8x-2y=4
Combine like terms and divide by 5 on both sides.
5x=10
x=2
Plug x in to find y:
4(2)-y=2
8-y=2
y=6
First of way to many questions, but Ill answer them
1) 5/9, 75/135 2) 5/11 3) 10/3 4) 13 quarts 5) 120 6) in 108 minutes
7) 3/4<33/40 8) 3/8<2/3<19/24
Y=250+2x is the amount she spends
y=12x is the amount she makes
If the amount she spent = the amount she makes then she break even
250+2x=12x
250=12x-2x
250=10x
So x = 250/10=25 necklaces she needs to sell to break even
Answer is 25 necklaces
