Answer:
he could buy 5 cookies and 7 brownies
Step-by-step explanation:
8.75 for the brownies and it is 3.75 for the cookies = 12.50
7*1.25=8.75 5*0.75= 3.75 equals 12.50 all together
he can't buy more than 12 cookies and brownies all together.
x = -2
-2 + 2y = -12
add 2 to both sides: 2y = -10
divide by 2 on both sides: y = -5
when x = -2, y = -5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
m∠EBC = 45°
3x + 9y = 45
Divide the entire equation by 3
x + 3y = 15 --------------------(I)
m∠EAB = 45
5x + 5y = 45
Divide the entire equation by 5
x +y = 9 -------------(II)
Multiply equation (II) by (-1)
(I) x + 3y = 15
(II)*(-1) <u> - x - y = -9</u> {Now add}
2y = 6
y = 6/2
y = 3
Plugin y = 3 in equation (I)
x + 3*3 = 15
x + 9 = 15
x = 15 - 9
x = 6
Get the x variable on one side and the numbers another side.
9/10(x + 2/3) = 4 1/2
Distribute the 9/10 across the x and 2/3.
(9/10)x + 18/30 = 4 1/2
Simplify 18/30 to make our life easier.
(9/10)x + 3/5 = 4 1/2
Subtract 3/5 from each side of the equation.
(9/10)x = 3 9/10
Divide both sides by 9/10.
x = 4 1/3
