Step-by-step explanation:

1.     x= Jacksons Cups   y= Lucius Cups2.       x -  y= 5           6x + 3y = 300Substitution:                                                 6 (y+5) + 3y = 300             6y + 30 + 3y = 300                9y =   270                dived both by 9                         y=30        Sub y for other equation            x - 30 = 5         add 30 to both sides           x = 35        Answer:   (35, 30)     Graphing:   x- y = 56x+ 3y = 300solve both for y y = x-5 6x + 3y = 300minus 6x from both sides the points are in y = mx + b y= 1x -5 y= -2x + 100  I will also leave the ss of the graph in the comments if you cannot see it  My labels for the x-axis is Jacksons cups and y Is luscious cups.  Elimination:x - y = 5 6x + 3y = 300 First I manipulated the equations by the following    - 6 (x - y = 5 )   1(6x  + 3y = 300 )      -6x + 6y = -30        6x + 3y  = 300          The 6 x's cancel  and add the y's and real numbers together           9y = 270           dived both by 9                   y= 30        Sub y for other equation                      x - 30 = 6                add 30 to both sides                x= 30  The points are  (35, 30) The solution is (35,30)They represent how many cups they sold.   35 is Jackson cups and 30 is Lucious's cups

After getting 5 new rocks, George gave half of his rock collection to Susan. If George gave Susan 36 rocks, which equation could
White raven [17]

Answer:

1/2 (x+5) = 36  should be the equation that is used to determine how many rocks George started with.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number of rocks George had.

As George gave, after getting 5 new rocks, half of his rock collection to Susan which is = 36 rocks

It means after getting 5 new rocks George's total rocks = 72

Given that he gave half collection to Susan = 36

Thus, before inducting 5 new rocks Georg's total rocks were = 67

Thus,

1/2 (x+5) = 36 should be the correct equation.

solving

1/2 (x+5) = 36

Multiplying both sides by 2

1/2 (x+5) × 2 = 36 × 2

x+5 = 72

x = 72 - 5

x = 67

Thus, before getting 5 new rocks, the number of rocks George had = 67

Therefore,

1/2 (x+5) = 36  should be the equation that is used to determine how many rocks George started with.
