Answer: what is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x by substituting y = 3x into the other equation:
2x - 4y = 3
2x - 4(3x) = 3
Simplify and solve for x:
2x - 12x = 3
-10x = 3
x = -3/10
So, x = -3/10
Since we know that he ate 1/4 pound one time, and 1/6 another time, we have to add up the fractions.
1/4+1/6
LCM of 4 and 6 = 12
3/12 + 2/12
Add the numerators:
5/12
So, he ate 5/12 of a pound of bars in both breaks.
Hope this helps!
