Answer:

x = -5

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Two equations

Solve using substitutition

y = -3

y - 3x = 12

_____________________

Since the first equation has y alone, we can plug it into the second equation for y.

(-3) - 3x = 12

-3 - 3x = 12

Add 3 to both sides :

-3x = 15

Divide -3 from both sides to get x alone :

x = -5

Now that we have x, plug it into x in the second equation :

y - 3(-5) = 12

y + 15 = 12

Solve for y :

Subtract 15 from both sides :

y = -3

Answer:

x = 5

y = -3

as an ordered pair: (5,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

if y = -3, then replace y in the first equation with -3.

-3 - 3x = 12

move -3 over to the other side by adding 3 to both sides.

3x = 15

x = 5

y = -3

Ross has to fill up a 300 gallon tank. There are already 75
stepan [7]

Answer: He needs 9 hours  to finish the task.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, first we have to subtract the gallons of water already in the tank (75) to the total capacity of the tank (300).

300-75 = 225

He needs to fill 225 gallons.

Since the pump Ross uses can fill 25 gallons of water per hour, the proportion is :

25 g / 1h

For 225 gallons:

225 g / x hours  

Solving for x

25/1 = 225/x

x= 225/ (25/1)

x = 9 hours
