Answer: 350

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cheeseburger be represented by a.

Since there were 51 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. This means that hamburgers will be:

= a + 51.

Since the local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 649 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. This will be:

a + a + 51 = 649

2a + 51 = 649

2a = 649 - 51

2a = 598

a = 598/2

a = 299

299 cheeseburger were sold

Therefore, the number of hamburger sold will be:

= 649 - 299

= 350

Find the X COORDINATE OF THE intersection of 9x - 6y = 12 and 3x + 2y =8
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a System of linear equations, the solution of the system is the point (x,y) in which the lines intersect, where "x" is the x-coordinate and "y" is the y-coordinate.

Having the following System of equations:

\left \{ {{9x - 6y = 12} \atop {3x + 2y =8}} \right.

You can use the Elimination method to find the value of "x":

-Multiply the second equation by 3.

- Add the equations.

- Solve for "x".

Then, you get:

\left \{ {{9x - 6y = 12} \atop {9x +6y =24}} \right.\\.......................\\18x=36\\\\x=\frac{36}{18}\\\\x=2

10x+9=4x -9 solve <br><br> please help
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you need to isolate the variable x, this means only one side of the equation should have the variable x. To do this, you need to do the opposite operation from what's given (if it's addition, use subraction; if it's multiplication, use division; these work vise versa)

  • Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation. This gives you 10x = 4x - 18.
  • Subtract 4x from both sides of the equation. This gives you 6x = -18.
  • Divide both sides by 6. This gives you x = -3

The final answer is x = -3
