Assume that the other number is y.
we know that the addition of both number is -9
this means that:
x+y=-9
reorder this equation to seperate the y variable:
y=-9-x
Answer:
a. subtract 7 from 10
Step-by-step explanation:
parenthesis goes before everything in this equation
What we know: A dozen costs 1.32; there are 12 in a dozen.
What we need to know: How much a restaurant makes selling 1 egg at 0.99.
First, find the value of one egg; you can do that by dividing the total cost (1.32) by the amount (12):
1.32 / 12 = 0.11 <-- The cost per egg is 11 cents. To find the profit of the restaurant, just subtract the cost from the price they sell it for:
0.99 - 0.11 = 0.88 <-- The profit the restaurant makes per egg is 88 cents.
Hope this helps.
add the two equations together
5a+5b=25
-5a+5b=35
------------------
0 + 10b =60
divide by 10
b=6
5a + 5b = 25
5a +5(6) = 25
5a +30 =25
subtract 30 from each side
5a =-5
divide by 5
a = -1
Answer (-1,6)
or a=-1 b=6
x=
34
/3 thats what I got 34/3=11.333333
