Box of markers = $ B
Shoulder bag = Twice as much as the box of markers = $ 2B
Pen = Six less than the shoulder bag = $ (2B - 6)
Hence, the cost of pen is $ (2B - 6).
This works out beautifully. You COULD use long division here, but since your numerator is a quadratic, your first instinct should be to try and factor it. If you factor it, it works out to be (x - 3)(x + 2). Now it just so happens that when you do that, the (x - 3) in the numerator will cancel with the (x - 3) in the denominator leaving you with one sad and lonely (x + 2) as your answer.
Answer:
For D. X= 3, or 0 but probably not 0
For the 2nd picture you sent, x= -2, or -3
Step-by-step explanation:
So for D. you want to make sure you only have 1 Variable, and since we know y=x squared + 7x+5, we subsitute y for what it is equal to.
Then we refine the question, which takes it out to
x squared-3x+5=5 (because the 7x-10x = 3x)
We subtract 5 from both sides which leaves us with x Squared - 3x= 0
Which we then solve with the Quadratic formula. and we separate the solutions to get the different answers for 3, and 0

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=1 and y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
step one: plug -4x into y in thi]e first equation.
2x+5(-4)= -18
step two: solve for x
2x-20= -18
(add 20 to both sides to eliminate -20 on the right)
2x=2
(divide both sides by 2 to get x by its self)
x=1
step 3: now that we found the value for x plug it in to either equation and solve for y
y= -4x
y= -4(1)
y= -4
