Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Carlos made:</u>
<u>Lily made:</u>
<u>Together they made:</u>
- 12C + 35 + 12L = 12(C + L) + 35
Lily is right. We don't know what 120 means in Carlos's equation, he should put 12L for Lily.
Answer:
y = -2x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x+b
5 = -2(-3)+b
5 = 6+b
-1 = b
I only know number 9
9. 9x+38
Answer:
All of these terms are dollar amounts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, x + y = 10 (where these numerals represent counts)
(1/2)x + (1/4)y = 4 (where (1/2), (1/4) and 4 are dollar amounts)
Let's eliminate y. To accomplish this, mult. the 2nd eq'n by-4, obtaining
-2x - y = -16, and then combining this with the 1st equation, as follows:
-2x - y = -16
x + y = 10
-------------------
-x = -6, or x = 6. This represents the number of pens purchased by Terrance.
Subbing 6 for x in the first equation, we get y = 4. This represents the number of pencils he bought.
($0.50)x + ($0.25)y = $4.00 (dollar amounts)
