Answer:
x = 2
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x – 1
y - 2x = -1
y = 5x – 7
y - 5x = -7
y - 2x = -1
y - 5x = -7
_________--
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2
y = 2x – 1
y = 2(2) - 1
y = 4 - 1
y = 3
3/8 = .375 so we want .375 of $5460.40 or .375 x $5460.40 = $2047.65 savings
To find the checking we simply subtract:
$5460.40 - 2047.65 = $3412.75 - checking
You could also do 5/8 or .625 x $5460.40 to get $3412.75
because 3/8 + 5/8 (or .375+.625) = 1 (1 whole amount to save - in this case $5460.40)
They lost -17 bc they lost -3 yards the first game and then -14 the second
Answer:
1/3 more pounds of string beans.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of string beans: 5/12 of a lbs(pound)
Amount of lima beans: 1/12 of a lbs
Amount of string beans - Amount of lima beans = 5/12-1/12 =4/12 which simplifies down to 1/3.
5+3x=4x
only when
x=5
The two expression are only equal at x=5
