3.33333333 as a whole number is 3
Answer:
7x -1 is correct after combining like terms
Step-by-step explanation:
6+8x-7-x
To simplify algebraic expression we combine like terms
In the given expression
-x or -1x are same
8x and -1x are like terms
6 and -7 are also like terms
8x-1x= 7x
6 - 7 = -1
So 7x -1 is correct after combining like terms
Answer:
Cost of bolts = x = $0.3
Cost of washers = y = $0.167
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
Cost of bolts = x
Cost of washers = y
Luke buys 4 bolts and 6 washers for $2.20
Hence:
4x + 6y = 2.20....Equation 1
Holly spends $1.80 on 3 bolts and 5 washers at the same local hardware store.
3x + 5y = 1.80....Equation 2
Combining both Equations
4x + 6y = 2.20....Equation 1
3x + 5y = 1.80....Equation 2
Multiply Equation 1 by 3 and Equation 2 by 4 to eliminate x
12x + 18x = 6.6.....Equation 4
12x + 20x = 7.2.......Equation 5
Substract Equation 4 from 5
= 2x = 0.6
x = 0.6/2
x = $0.3
Solving for y
4x + 6y = 2.20....Equation 1
4 × 0.3 + 6y = 2.2
1.2 + 6y = 2.2
6y = 2.2 - 1.2
6y = 1.0
y = 1.0/6
y = $0.167
Cost of bolts = x = $0.3
Cost of washers = y = $0.167
Answer:
y = -3x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form is: y = mx+b
m = slope
b = y - intercept
Substitute: y = -3x - 2
This is a proportion problem. Start by doing:
2/3 = x/52.20
Multiply both sides by 52.20
X= 34.8 this is how much the son paid
Now add 34.8 + 52.20
Answer is 87
