Add all of the students who like the ice creams and subtract from 147 :)
Substitution:
2x + (6(1/2x - 6)) = 19
2x + 3x - 36 = 19
5x - 36 = 19
+ 36
5x = 55
÷ 5
x = 11
y = (1/2 × 11) - 6
y = 5.5 - 6
y = -0.5
Elimination:
y = 1/2x - 6
- y
0 = 1/2x - 6 - y
+ 6
1/2x - y = 6
3x - 6y = 36
2x + 6y = 19
(add)
5x = 55
÷ 5
x = 11
y = (1/2 × 11) - 6
y = 5.5 - 6
y = -0.5
I hope this helps! Let me know if you need me to explain why I did some things :)
Answer:
x =2
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+4) /3 = 2
Multiply each side by 3
(x+4) /3 *3= 2*3
x+4 = 6
Subtract 4
x+4-4 = 6-4
x =2
Answer:
2 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
13/5
5 goes into 13 2 time
2*5 =10
13-10 =3
There is 3 left over. This goes over the denominator
2 3/5
