82.50?? I think because I just multiplied them.
If 1/6 of the bags of pet food are cat food, then the other 5/6 is other pet food.
Since there are 4 bags that make up 1/6 of the food, multiplying 4 by 6 should get the answer. 4 x 6 = 24
{ 3-y=2x
{ x+1/2y=3/2
{ -y=2x-3
{ 1/2y=3/2-x
{ y=-2x+3
{ y=3-2x
-2x+3=3-2x
(x,y) = (x,-2x+3)
He spent $9.50 in total. To find this answer, you write the equation 2(9.95) + 3(1.20). You would distribute getting 5.90 + 3.60= $9.50.
Hey there! :)
Answer:
y = 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set both of the equations equal:
5x - 9 = x² - 3x + 7
Rearrange the equation:
0 = x² - 3x - 5x + 9 + 7
Combine like terms:
0 = x² - 8x + 16
Factor:
0 = (x -4)²
Solve for x:
0 = x - 4
x = 4.
Plug this into an equation to solve for 'y':
y = 5(4) - 9
y = 20 - 9
y = 11.
