[Given]
{ x + y = 6
{ x = y + 4
[Plug-in our x value & solve]
[Given] x + y = 6
[ Plug-in] (y + 4) + y = 6
[Distribute] y + 4 + y = 6
[Combine like terms] 2y + 4 = 6
[Subtract 4 from both sides] 2y = 2
[Divide both sides by 2] y = 1
[Answer]
Third option - (5, 1)
-> You do not need to solve for x since this is the only option that has y = 1, but to solve for x we would do y + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5, so this answer fully checks correctly

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of months be x
Alligator 1 weight = 4 + 2x
Alligator 2 weight = 8 + x
- 4 + 2x = 8 + x
- 2x - x = 8 - 4
- x = 4
The answer is 4 months
5=4x+2x-7
5+7=6x
12=6x
12/6=6x/6
2=x
Answer:
$1,100
Step-by-step Explanation:
Dee Wallace's salary in 2006 = $61,000 Dee Wallace's salary in 2009 = $64,300
The salary increased in => 2009 - 2006 = 3yrs
The amount of salary increased = 64,300-61000 = $3,300
The annual change of salary = 3,300/3 = $1,100
The x² term will be C(5,2)x²·2³ = 80x².
The coefficient is 80.
_____
C(n, k) = n!/(k!·(n-k)!)
C(5, 2) = 5·4/(2·1) = 10
