Answer:
y=1, x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=3
x-y=1
Using elimination method
x-x+y--y=3-1
2y= 2
y=1
Substitute y=1 into equation 2
x-1=1
x=1+1
x=2
Answer:
Mr. Garcia had 5 kilograms of blueberries at first
Step-by-step explanation:
to make this easiest, we can imagine that we're undoing mr. garcia's actions.
So, we can start by 'unpacking' mr garcia's bags
we know that each of the nine bags had 1/4 kilograms, so we can multiply 1/4 by 9 to find the collective mass packed into bags
(remember, multiplication is repeated addition. we could also add 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4... nine times, but this would take a while)
so,
1/4 x 9 = 9/4
(9 = 9/1 [if that is how you're used to multiplying a fraction])
Then, he also sold 2 3/4 kilograms
so, we can add 2 3/4 + 9/4 to find the total mass of the blueberries at first
2 3/4 + 9/4 = 2 + 12/4
(12/4 = 3)
2 + 3 = 5
So, Mr. Garcia had 5 kilograms of blueberries at first
3.006 rounded to the nearest tenth is 3.0. This is due to the fact that
the 6 rounded up will mean that the current 0 becomes 1, but this will
not be carried to the tenth when rounding up.

9 16-ounce packages
Step-by-step explanation:
144oz. ÷ 16 = 9 Packages
Answer:
86
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Perimeter of WXY = WSY+WRX+XY</u>
<em>--> WSY = SY x 2</em>
--> WSY = 16 x 2 = 32
<em>Since it is an isosceles triangle, WRX = WSY</em>
--> WRX = 32
<em>--> Draw a straight line from W to XY to divide it into two halves assuming it to be point A. This would form a right angle triangle of WAX.</em>
<em>--> Solve it using the cos theta rule</em>
--> Angle = Angle X = 70°
Hypotenuse = WRX = 32
Adjacent = WA = ?
<em>--> Cos (Angle) = Adjacent/Hypotenuse</em>
Cos (70) = WA/32
WA = 10.9 rounded off to 11
--> WA=AY= 11
--> XY = WA + AY = 11+11 = 22
<em>--> Perimeter = WSY+WRX+XY</em>
Perimeter = 32+32+22
Perimeter = 86
Therefore, the perimeter of WXY is 86.
