I think x=24 but not sure
Step-by-step explanation:
5 a = $4.45
x1.4
7 apples = $6.23
1 apple = 0.89
9.79 / 0.89 = 11
11 apples
Answer:
[12, 15]
Step-by-step explanation:
{6x + 5y = 147
{8x + 4y = 156
-¾[8x + 4y = 156]
{6x + 5y = 147
{-6x - 3y = -117 ← New Equation
________________
2y = 30
___ ___
2 2
y = 15 [Plug this back into both equations to get the x-coordinate of 12]; 12 = x
So, using the Elimination Method, what I did here was took the bottom equation and multiplied it by -¾, turning 8x to -6x, canceling out all <em>x-terms</em><em>.</em><em> </em>It does not matter which variable you choose to eliminate, as long as you know what you are doing.
I am joyous to assist you anytime.
Let's translate it into an equation and then solve...
7/x = 7.35
x * 7/x = 7.35 * x
7 = 7.35x
7/7.35 = x
.9524 = x
So 7 divided by .9524 (rounded to the nearest ten thousandth) equals 7.35
