Simplifying
7x + 2y = 16
Solving
7x + 2y = 16
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.
7x + 2y + -2y = 16 + -2y
Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0
7x + 0 = 16 + -2y
7x = 16 + -2y
Divide each side by '7'.
x = 2.285714286 + -0.2857142857y
Simplifying
x = 2.285714286 + -0.2857142857y
Answer: y=5/7x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
The y- intercept would be 2 since that is where the line goes through the y axis. Also if you use slope form you will see that the slope is 5/7.
Answer:
11 13/15
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 2/3+b = 8 1/5
Add 3 2/3 to each side
-3 2/3 + 3 2/3+b = 8 1/5+ 3 2/3
b = 8 1/5 + 3 2/3
We need to get a common denominator of 15
8 1/5 = 8 3/15
3 2/3 = 3 10/15

Answer
6 Gallons
Each gallon of water needs 6 teaspoons because 30/5=6
Now we know that teaspoons/6=amount of gallons
36/6=6 gallons
Answer:
6kg pure copper and 30 kg 10% copper was mixed to give 36kg of 25% alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to produce 36 kg of 25% alloy
Let the Pure copper be x kg while 10% alloy be y kg
Pure copper is simply 100% copper
Thus;
x + y = 36 •••••(i)
Then;
100% of x + 10% of y = 25% of 36
= x + 0.1y = 9 •••••• ii)
From i x = 36-y
from ii, x = 9-0.1y
Equate both x
36-y = 9-0.1y
36-9 = 0.1y + y
0.9y = 27
y = 27/0.9
y = 30
x = 36-y
x = 36-30
x = 6 kg
