Answer:
(2,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
first take x-y=0 and multiply it by -5 you will then get this
-5x+5y=0
5x-2y=6
add those together
3y=6
divide by 3
y=2
now plug 2 in for y
x-2=0
add 2 to both sides
x=2
Answer:
$56
Step-by-step explanation:
100 - (100(0.30)) = 100 - 30 = 70
70 - (70(0.20)) = 70 - 14 = 56

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5120oz/12=426.667 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know 1 pound = 16 oz. If we want to find out how many ounces are in 320 lbs, we must multiply 16 by 320 = 5120 ounces. Now we must divide by 12 to see how much she ate per month. 5120 divided by 12 is 426.667 or 426 and 2/3 ounces per month.
Alternatively, we can set up a proportion 1 lb / 16 ounces = 320 lb / x ounces. We cross multiply 1 times x = 320 times 15. On the left hand side we just have x and on the right hand side we get 5120. Hence, x=5120 ounces per year. To find how many she ate per month we must divide by 12 since there are 12 months in a year. So it comes out to 426 and 2/3 ounces per month.
Here are the equations: (1lb)(320lb)=(16oz)(320oz) implies 320lb=5120oz. Then divide 5120oz 12 to get how much she ate per month: 5120oz/12=426.667 ounces.
