You would add them together if it’s on a number line bc u have to go 5 to get to 0 then another 13 so 13+5=18
X = 3(y - 2/3) ...distribute thru the parenthesis
x = 3y - 6/3...reduce
x = 3y - 2
so ur answer is : x = 3(y - 2/3)
12% of 1200 is 144, so subtract that. you get 1056. 12% of that is 126.72, so you subtract that. you get 929.28. 12% of that is 111.5136 and you subtract that. and so on and so forth. the answer would be 557.
A=3 so 8*3=24.......................
Answer:
x=10/3 y=17/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use substitution to solve your equation. Plug in y=2x-1 into y=1/2x+4. This makes (2x-1)=1/2x+4. Simplify this to get 3/2x-1=4. Simplify it again to get 3/2x=5. No one likes fractions so multiply both sides by 2 to get 3x=10. Simplify this and get x=10/3. Plus 10/3 into one of the equations. You can pick anyone but I picked y=2x-1. Because you know x=10/3, you put y=2(10/3)-1. Simplify this and get y=20/3-1. Convert 1 into a fraction and get y=20/3-3/3. Simplify this and get y=17/3.
Therefore,
x=10/3 y=17/3
