Answer:
Let x represents the Sara eat pancake and y represents the Phil eat the pancake.
As per the statement:
Phil ate three less than twice as many pancakes as Sara.
"Twice as many pancake as Sara" means 2x
"three less than twice as many pancakes as Sara" means 2x -3
⇒
.....[1]
It is also given that together they combined to eat 15 pancakes.
⇒
.....[2]
Substitute equation [1] into [2] we get;
Combine like terms;
3x-3 =15
Add 3 to both sides we get;
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3 we get;
x = 6
Substitute the value of x in [1] we get;
y = 2(6)-3 = 12-3 =9
y = 9
Therefore, the pancakes did each eat are;
Sara eat pancake = 6 and Phil eat pancake = 9
Answer:
perpendicular (90 deg to each other)
Step-by-step explanation:
Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.
Let x represent the number of cookies and y represent the number of brownies.
Since he bought $9 worth of cookies and brownies. Each cookie costs $0.75 and each brownie costs $3. hence:
0.75x + 3y = 9 (1)
Also, he bought twice as many cookies as brownies, hence:
x = 2y
x - 2y = 0 (2)
Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives x = 4, y = 2
Hence Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.
6 units (or whatever you’re measuring in)
Each little square represents 1 unit.
