Step 1: Find the value of one variable in terms of the other.
Step 2: Substitute the value you just found for this variable in the other equation.
Step 3: Use your new value for the second variable to find the first.
Now that we know the values for a and b we can find the value of 4a+b.
Answer:
-1 5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
so first, simplify the signs so they don’t confuse you,
-5/6 - 17/18 + 2/9 (Since there are two negatives near the end, and their tecxhnically being mulitplied, -2/9*-1 (I added 1 for place holder) and when you multiply a negatives by a negative, you get a positive.
So find the lcm of the denominators which is 18 in this case
-15/18 - 17/18 + 4/18
Now solve the problem from left to right
you’ll get -1 5/9 if you simplified
Answer:
y= -6x - 51
Step-by-step explanation:
5y = -6x - 10
Slope: -6
y = -6/5x - 2
Point: (-10,9)
y-intercept: 9 - (-6)(-10) = 9 -60 = - 51
Answer:
$10.348
Step-by-step explanation:
(3.98)(2.6)= 10.348
Let x represent number of bracelets and y represent number of necklaces.
We have been given that a jeweler made 7 more necklaces than bracelets. This means that number of necklaces will be . We can represent this information in an equation as:
We have been given that the amount of gold in each bracelet is 6 grams, so amount used for x bracelets would be grams.
We are also told that the amount of gold in each necklace is 16 grams, so amount used for y necklaces would be grams.
Since the jeweler used 178 grams of gold, so we will equate the amount of gold used in x bracelets and y necklaces with 178 as:
Therefore, our required system of equations would be:
