Solve 7x+2y=16 5x-2y=20 x= y= (3 marks)

Mathematics

sasho [114]3 years ago

X=3 and y=-5/2. Here is why, when we do 7x+5x that gives us 12x. -2y+2y=0 and then we have 16 plus 20 which gives us 36. Now we gotta isolate x which right now we have 12x=36. Therefore divide by 12 to get x alone, which 36 divided by 12 is equal to 3. X=3. Plug it back into the equation, 7(3)=21 plus 2y=16. Subtract 21 from both sides 16-21 is equal to -5. Then 2y=-5 divide by 2 on both sides you will have -5/2=y or y=-5/2. Hope this helps!

the local farm sell a 4 pound basket of apples for 5.60 each apple weighs 4 ounces. what is the price per apples
valina [46]
Because there are 16 ounces in a pound, we can multiply 16 by 4 to get 64, there are 64 ounces of apples which is also the same as 4 pounds of apples. If 64 ounces of apples equals $5.60, and each apple is 4 ounces, we have to also divide 64 by 4 to find the number of apples. 64 divided by 4 is 16, so 16 apples for $5.60. To get the price PER apple, or for one apple, we have divide $5.60 by 16, which will give us $0.35, or $.35 per apple, which is actually a good price.
