Let's solve this by substitution.
y is given by the 2nd eqn as y = (1/3)x + 7. Subst. (1/3)x + 7 into the first eqn as a replacement for y: x + 9( (1/3)x + 7) = 3.
clear out fractions by mult. all 3 terms by 3: 3x + 9x + 63 = 3
Combine like terms: 12x = -60. Then x = -5
Find y by subst. -5 for x in the 2nd equation: y = (1/3)(-5) + 7
= -5/3 + 35/3 = 30/3 = 10.
Thus, the solution (x,y) of this system is (-5,10).
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
If you ever divide a number by itself, it will be 1.

Answer:
39 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume that the 3.5 cups of concentrate make 3.5+3 = 6.5 cups of tea, we can use the proportion ...
6.5/3.5 = x/21
to find the x cups of tea Ahab can make with 21 cups of concentrate.
Multiplying by 21, we get ...
x = 21(6.5/3.5) = 39
Ahab can make 39 cups of tea.
Answer:
<h2><u><em>
2/7</em></u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
I answer for what I understand, the question is not clear.
2 divided by what times what equals 7
2 : x = 7
x = -2/-7
x = 2/7
-------------
check
2 : 2/7 = 7
2 * 7/2 = 7
7 = 7
the answer is good
