Answer:

x=21

y= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y = 28

x = 3y

Substitute the second equation into the first

3y+y = 28

4y = 28

Divide by 4

4y/4 = 28/4

y = 7

Now we need to find x

x = 3*y

x = 3*7

x = 21

Family drinks 1 3/4 gallons of milk every 4 1/2 days what is the unit rate of milk per day
natita [175]
\bf \cfrac{milk}{day}\qquad \cfrac{1\frac{3}{4}}{4\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1\cdot 4+3}{4}}{\frac{4\cdot 2+1}2}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{7}{4}\quad }{\frac{9}{2}}\implies \cfrac{7}{\underline{4}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{2}}{9}\implies \cfrac{7}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{9}\implies \cfrac{7}{18}

which gives us a quotient of about 0.39 gallons of milk for one day.<span />

ANSWER FOR BRAINILEST
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + (3x-6) + 108+ 88= 360 ( interior angle of quadrilateral is 360)

2x + (3x-6) + 196 = 360

2x + (3x-6)= 360 - 196

2x + 3x - 6 = 164

5x= 164+6

5x = 170

x= 170/5

x= 34
