Ok here is what I think.
Let us first number these statements, as #1, and #2.
First statement: 3x + 8y = 12 (1)
Second Statement: 2x + 2y = 3 (2)
Now, we can work from this.
We want to make one of the equations be equal to 0 so that at the end when we check they can be equal to each other.
Let us use 4.
3x+8y=12 1-8x-8y=-12 2
This gives us:-5x = 0
Now we should try and isolate x so we can substitute it into one of the equations.
We have -5x=0
and x=0
3(0)+8y=12
8y=12
y=12/8
y=3/2
Plug in these new equations
y=3/2 and y=0 into any of the first equations
3x+8y=12 3(0)+8(3/2)= 12 8(3/2)=12 4(3)=12 12=12
Now we know it works, thats our check^^
Answer:
All answers are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Henry needs a total of 15 pints.
3 pints of yellow multiplied by 3 gives 9 pints of yellow, he needs 6 pints of red to get to 15, so he multiplies 2 pints of red by 3 to get 6 pints of red.
You add 9 + 6 to get the total of 15 pints he needs.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
well, we know that 213.90 includes the 15% gratuity, so if the meal price was say "x", namely that is the 100%, and we add 15% to that, then 100% + 15% = 115%, so 213.90 is really the 115%.
now, if 213.90 is the 115.%, what is "x"? the 100%.

so since we know the meal without the tip is 186 bucks, the tip was then 213.90 - 186 = 27.90.
but they got extra potato wedges with butter and the waitress was wearing her best hat, they added $20 more, so the tip ended up as 27.90 + 20 = 47.90.
now, if the cost of the meal was $186 and that is the 100%, what is 47.90 off of it in percentage?

perimeter means add the side
(x+4) +( x+8)+(2x-3) =P
x+x+2x+4+8-3=P
4x-9 =P
