Answer:
18x + 13y = 60
6x + 2y = 6 ---> 6x = -2y +6 ---> 18x = -6y+18
Substitution
(-6y +18)+13y =60
-18 -18
--------------------------
7y = 42 so y=6
Then, 6x + 2(6) =6, which you will get x = -1
(-1, 6)
Alright, lets get started.
Suppose total number of dancers in school = x
We have given in question, 42 % of total dancers are ballet dancers.
So, we could find number of ballet dancers by finding 42 % of total dancers.
Number of ballet dancers = x * 42 %
Number of ballet dancers = x * 42/100 = 0.42 x
As per given in question, there are 63 ballet dancers in school.
Which means 0.42 x = 63
Dividing 0.42 from both sides
0.42 x / 0.42 = 63 / 0.42
x = 150
Hence number of total dancers in school = 150 : Answer
Hope it will help :)
$12 each. $75 - $39 = $36. $36 divided by 3 = $12. Assuming he used all his money.
The answer is 7 1/4
Or 29/4 as an improper fraction
