500 − 250  = 250 pieces left after donation

Yolanda got  180 pieces....then Enrique  got 70 pieces

So he got   70 /250  = 7/25  =  28%  of the remaining candy

Jenny has saved $3,800 over the last 12 months. She saved either $250 or $350 a month. During the 12 month period, how many time
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Jenny save 4 times \$ 250 for the month

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Jenny has saved \$3,800 over the last 12 months.

She saved either \$250 or \$350 a month.

Let the number of months to save \$250 be x

Let the number of months to save \$350 be y

Total period is 12 month.

x+y=12 \ \ \ \ equation\ 1

Jenny has saved $3,800 over the last 12 months.

250x+350y=3800

Dividing both side from 50 we get,

\frac{250}{50}x+\frac{350}{50}y= \frac{3800}{50}

5x+7y=76 \ \ \ \ equation\ 2

Now Multiplying  equation 1 by 5 we get,

5\times(x+y)=5\times 12\\5x+5y=60\ \ \ \ equation \ 3

Now Subtracting Equation 3 by equation 2 we get,

(5x+7y=76)-(5x+5y=60)\\2y=16\\y=\frac{16}{2}= 8

Substituting the value of y in equation 1 we get,

x+y=12\\x+8=12\\x=12-8\\x=4

∴ Jenny save 4 Months of  \$ 250 and 8 Months of  \$ 350in a 12 month duration

What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first x-3y=6 and -8x-y=6
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    x-3*y-(6)=0  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation of a Straight Line

1.1     Solve   x-3y-6  = 0

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  x-3y-6  = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

 

 

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 2/-1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y=-2.00000

 y-intercept = 6/-3 = 2/-1  = -2.00000  

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 6/1 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x= 6.00000

 x-intercept = 6/1  =  6.00000  

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -2.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is -1.333. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of -1.333 - (-2.000) = 0.667 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE
