Answer:
x=5, y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to multiply both sides of the second equation by -1 so that you can proceed the elimination process. Like this...
x + y = 6
x - 4y = 1
x + y = 6
-x + 4y =- 1
Now you can eliminate the x variable by addition process. It becomes like this...
x + y = 6
-x + 4y =- 1
5y=5
y = 1
Now, let's proceed substitution process. You can substitute the value of y into any equation that you want. I want to put the value of y into the equation of x + y = 6
.
When y=1, substitute into x + y = 6
x + 1 = 6
x = 6-1
x = 5
Hooray! Now you have the value of x and y.
x= 1 and y=5.
I hope you will understand my explanation. Bye!
Answer:
what is your question I can help you
The equation would be:
3/4x=16 1/2
So you would divide both sides by 3/4
and get 44 bags for the leftover 16 1/2 lb. of cookies.
Hope this helps a lot!
