Substitute y = -x into the first equation:
-8x - 7(-x) = -5
-8x + 7x = -5
-x = -5
x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into y = -x
y = -(5)
y = -5
Answer: x = 5, y = -5
Answer:
No Solution
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no number that can replace x to make the equation true.
Answer:
24 quarters and 49 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
This situation has two unknowns - the total number of nickels and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.
- n+q=73 is an equation representing the total number of coins
- 0.05n+0.25q=8.45 is an equation representing the total value in money based on the number of coin. 0.05 and 0.25 come from the value of a nickel and quarter individually.
We write the first equation in terms of q by subtracting it across the equal sign to get n=73-q. We now substitute this for n in the second equation.
0.05(73-q)+0.25q=8.45
3.65-0.05q+0.25q=8.45
3.65+0.20q=8.45
After simplifying, we subtract 3.65 across and divide by the coefficient of q.
0.20q=4.8
q=24
We now know of the 73 coins that 24 are quarters. To find the number of nickels, we subtract 24 from 73 and get 49 nickels.
Answer:
y=3x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
x=month of the total length
and it says increases so its addition
For easier calculation,
convert 4years 8months into months. This would give you 56months.
Amit is 56months old.
4 units/proportion =56
1 unit=56/4
5unit=56/4 ×5(simplify)
