Answer:

x = 7

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 4                 (Multiply this by 9)

-9x + 7y = -84

9x + 9y = 36

-9x + 7y = -84

16y = -48

y = -3

x + y = 4  

x - 3 = 4

x = 7

if 3 half-gallon containers of ice cream on sale for $6.69,what is the price for 2 half-gallon containers?​
kvv77 [185]
<h3>Answer:  $4.46</h3>

===================================================

Work Shown:

3 containers = 6.69 dollars

3/3 containers = 6.69/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3

1 container = 2.23 dollars

2*(1 container) = 2*(2.23 dollars) ... multiply both sides by 2

2 containers = 4.46 dollars

A shortcut is to start with "3 containers = 6.69 dollars" and multiply both sides by 2/3

Each mention of "container" refers to a half-gallon container.

GREYUIT [131]
5% of the kids are in health. I got this from simplifying 3/60 which is 1/20

After that, i set up this equation: 1/20 times x/100

I would then divide 20 and 100 to get 5 and that’s basically what I did

A book sold 39,300 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 6.1% of the number of copies sold to date. How
alexdok [17]

Answer:

644,262 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a proportion problem, and we are given three values and one variable which is the total number of copies sold to date (x). Then we can use the Rule of Three to solve this problem. To do this we simply multiply the diagonal values and divide by the last value which would give us the value of the variable x

39,300 copies  <======>  6.1%

    x   copies   <=======>  100%

(100*39,300) / 6.1 = 644,262 copies

Therefore, a total of 644,262 copies have been sold to date.
