Answer:
B = (C-Ax)/y
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for B.
Ax+By=C
making B the subject of formula '
Ax+By=C
subtract Ax from both sides
By = C-Ax
By = C-Ax
divide both sides by y
B = (C-Ax)/y
Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.
Let x represent the number of cookies and y represent the number of brownies.
Since he bought $9 worth of cookies and brownies. Each cookie costs $0.75 and each brownie costs $3. hence:
0.75x + 3y = 9 (1)
Also, he bought twice as many cookies as brownies, hence:
x = 2y
x - 2y = 0 (2)
Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives x = 4, y = 2
Hence Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.
Answer: Original price = $43.10, Increase = $19.40, Final price = $62.50
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the original price, then
8x(1.45) < $500
x < $43.10
Increase is 0.45x
0.45($43.10)
= $19.40
Final price is Original + Increase
$43.10 + $19.40
= $62.50
- 6 - (-2)
- (-2) = 2
* two negatives = one positive
-6 + 2 = -4
-4 is your answer
hope this helps
