Answer:

Substitution method can be used

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

y = 2x-1 ....1

-12x + 3y = 9 ....2

The best method to use id the substitution method

Substitute equation 1 into 2;

From 2;

-12x + 3y = 9

-4x + y = 3

-4x + 2x-1 = 3

-2x -1 = 3

-2x = 3+1

-2X = 4

x = -4/2

x = -2

Substitute x = -2 into 1

y = 2x - 1

y = 2(-2)-1

y = -4-1

y = -5

Hence the solution to the system of equation is (-2, -5)

nadezda [96]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Method- 56-25=31-25=6

I subtracted 25 until I cant no more so I only did it 2 times so 2 quarters are in the piggy bank.

Quarters-2

Then since the remainder was 6 that means there was only 1 penny and 1 nickel.

Pennies- 1

Nickels-1

Trevor and Marissa together have 26 t shirt to sell if Marissa has 6 fewer t shirts than Trevor find how many t-shirts Trevor ha
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
1) Set up an equation for the total, with T representing Trevor and M representing Marissa: 

T + M = 26

2) Use the provided information related Marissa's t-shirts to Trevor's to solve for one variable at a time (in this case, T): 

M = T-6 

3) Substitute M with this equation into the initial, first equation: 

T + (T-6)  = 26

4) Combine like terms and isolate T: 

T+T = 26 + 6

2T = 32 

T = 16 

5) Therefore, you now know that Trevor has 16 t-shirts. To find the number of t-shirts that Marissa has, simply plug in this amount for T into the equation that was already set up for M: 

M = T - 6 

M = 16 - 6 

M = 10

Therefore, Trevor has 16 t-shirts and Marissa has 10 t-shirts.

Hope this helps, and don't forget to mark my answer as the Brainliest! :)
