Answer:

x=3

y=18

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=21..........equation 1

or,x=21-y......equation 2

y=6x.......equation3

substituting the value of x in equation 3

y=6(21-y)

or,y=126-6y

or,7y=126

y=18

again,substituting the value of y in equation 2

x=21-y

or,x=21-18

x=3

x=3,y=18

Answer:

x = 3

y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

you replace y with 6x

x + 6x = 21

combine like terms

7x = 21

divide both sides by seven

x = 3

then you plyg 3 into the other equation

y = 6(3)

y= 18

Find the slope of the line.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the line goes through the origin, so we have point (0,0). next, find another point the line goes through. for example, point (2,4)

the slope formula for points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). plug in the 2 points to get (4-0)/(2-0) = 4/2 = 2

Mrs. Hwang is taking her vehicle to the shop to have the gas tank expanded by 10 gallons. Now, it costs her $42.56 to fill the t
harina [27]

Answer:

Proportion states that the two fractions or ratios are equal

As per the statement: Mrs. Hwang is taking her vehicle to the shop to have the gas tank expanded by 10 gallons. Now, it costs her $42.56 to fill the tank. Once the new tank is in, it will cost her $72.96

Let the tank size now be x

Since, the gas tank expanded by 10 gallons = x + 10

by definition of proportion ;

\frac{x}{42.56}=\frac{x+10}{72.96}

by cross multiply we get;

72.96x = 42.56(x+10)

using distributive property;a\cdot (b+c) =a\cdot b + a\cdot c

72.96x = 42.56x+425.6

Subtract 42.56x from both sides we get;

30.4x =425.6

Divide both sides by 30.4 we get;

x = 14

Therefore, the tank is her now is, 14 gallons

Marta_Voda [28]

Based on the information given the chocolates stated on the label is 0.0042-ounce lighter.

Weight:

Using this formula

Chocolate weight=Current weight-Actual weight

Where:

Current weight=0.384

Actual weight=0.3798

Let plug in the formula

Chocolate weight=0.384-0.3798

Chocolate weight=0.0042 ounce

In conclusion, the chocolates stated on the label are 0.0042-ounce lighter.
