Hello there!
3x - y = 3
-x + y = 3
We need to solve 3x - y = 3 for y
Let start by adding -3x to both sides
3x - y = 3
3x - 3x - y = 3 - 3x
-y = 3 - 3x
We cannot leave the variable with a negative sign. We must multiply both sides by -1
-y * -1= (3 - 3x)-1
y = 3x - 3
Substitute 3x -3 for y in -x+y=3
-x + y = 3
-x + 3x - 3 = 3
2x - 3 = 3
2x = 3 + 3
2x = 6
x = 6/2
x = 3
Now substitute 3 for x in y=3x -3
y = 3x - 3
y = 3(3) - 3
y= 9 - 3
y= 6
Thus,
The answer is x=3 and y=6

Answer:
5k+9
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's a square, all four sides are equal so divide the equation of the total by 4.
20k/4=5k
36/4=9
The length of one side of the garden can be represented by the expression:
5k+9
8 1/9 because 9 times 8 is 72 and 73-72=1 so 8 1/9
Answer:
180 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
For similar figures the ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of linear dimensions.
We take "tripled in size" to mean that the linear dimensions of the larger rectangle are 3 times those of the smaller rectangle. That means the area of the larger rectangle will be 3² = 9 times the area of the smaller one.
Area = (3²)(20 cm²) = 180 cm² . . . . area after tripled in size
