Answer:
I believe the answer is D :)
Let Peter's hit be x and Alice's runs be y.
x = 2(y - 6) . . . (1)
x + y = 18 . . . (2)
Putting (1) into (2) gives,
2y - 12 + y = 18
3y = 18 + 12 = 30
y = 30/3 = 10
x = 2(10 - 6) = 2(4) = 8
Therefore, Peter hit 8 home runs and Alice hit 10 home runs.
Answer:
No Solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Since -18 > 18 is not true, this inequality is always false
5x+2y=3
-5x on both sides
2y=3-5x
divide by 2 on both sides
y=3/2-5/2x
rewrite in order (optional depending on teacher)
y=-5/2x+3/2
