You just divide 15 by 3 and that equals 5
While it's pretty obvious to most of us that
-13x=90-2y
-6x=48-2y
is a system of linear equations, it'd be well to include that info plus the instructions "solve this system of linear equations."
Subtract the 2nd equation from the first:
-13x=90-2y
+6x=-48+2y
-----------------------
-7x = 42. Then x = -42/7, or x = 6.
Now subst. 6 for x in either one of the given equations. Suppose we use the 2nd equation:
-6x=48-2y
Then -6(6)=48-2y, or -36 = 48 - 2y, or 2y = 48+ 36 = 84. Then y = 42.
The solution is (6, 42).

Muliply by the reciprocal or inverted fraction next to b.
Now plug this value into any of the equations to find the value of a.
Every day, Michael consumes 4 more ounces than the pretzels. Multiply 5 by 4 to recieve the answer:
4 x 5 = 20
So the answer is A.
