Let x be how many hot dogs person b ate
therefore, person a ate x+8 hotdogs
and person c ate x-10 hotdogs
they all ate 130 hotdogs in total so
x + x + 8 + x - 10 = 130
3x -2 = 130
3x = 132
x = 44
so person b ate 44 hotdogs
person a ate 8 more so 52 hotdogs
and person c ate 10 less than person b so 34 hotdogs
Answer:
x=5, y=-2. (5, -2).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3y=4
3x+4y=7
----------------
3(2x+3y)=3(4)
-2(3x+4y)=-2(7)
----------------------
6x+9y=12
-6x-8y=-14
-----------------
y=-2
2x+3(-2)=4
2x-6=4
2x=4+6
2x=10
x=10/2
x=5
(6 - 2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3
6 - (2 - 1) = 6 - 1 = 5
The associative rule doesn't work for subtraction because you get different results when you move the parentheses.
