Answer:
x = 3
y = 4
hey, I am not 100% sure of the certainty of my answers, I am using what I remember about that topic but I do not know if it is right or wrong, I hope I have helped you, I did what I could.
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 2y = 23
5x + 2y = -17
X solution:
(you cancel the y)
-3x = 23
5x = -17
(you combine all the values above with those below)
2x = 6
(solve the ecuation normaly)
x = 6/2 = 3
Y solution:
(you replace the x)
-3(3) + 2y = 23
5(3) + 2y = -17
-9 + 2y = 23
15 + 2y = -17
(you combine all the values above with those below)
6 + 4y = 6
(solve the ecuation normaly)
4y = 0
y = 4
(I do not really know if the answer here is 0 or 4 since when passing the 4 to divide it would be 0/4 and I do not understand very well how that is solved)
Answer:
1. 1:4
2. y = 4 x X
3. yes
Step-by-step explanation:
1. every 1 minuet he cleans 4 shrimp
2. y is the number of shrimp and x is the time. if every miuet he cleans 4 shrimp, then that means you have to multiply the shrimp by the minuets. for example, if he spends 2 minuets, he cleans 8 shrimp because 2 x 4 = 8.
3. This is a proportional relationship because if you were to put this on a graph, it would be a strait line. for example, if you were to plot x (the time) on a line (this line would go horizontal) and y (shrimp) on the line (this line goes verticle) 1 minuet = 4 shrimp. 2 minuets = 8 shrimp. 3 minuets = 12 shrimp. 4 minuets = 16 shrimp.
i hope this helps. tell me if this is too confusing or if you need more help. have a great day :)
