Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
let b represent the number of blue marbles then
yellow = 5b + 7 and
b + 5b + 7 = 37, that is
6b + 7 = 37 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
6b = 30 ( divide both sides by 6 )
b = 5
Thus there are 5 blue and 5(5) + 7 = 25 + 7 = 32 yellow marbles
Answer:
(-4,5)
*View attached graph*
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x - 3
4y + x = 16
4y + x = 16
4(-2x - 3) + x = 16
-8x - 12 + x = 16
-7x - 12 = 16
+12 + 12
-7x = 28
/-7 /-7
x = -4
4y + x = 16
4y + (-4) = 16
4y - 4 = 16
+ 4 + 4
4y = 20
/4 /4
y = 5
(x,y) -> (-4,5)
Hope this helps!
The first equation is 6x - 2y = 10. To solve for y, you will use inverse (opposite) operations to undo what is happening to y. Please see the steps below for the work.
6x - 2y = 10
-6x -6x
<u>-2y </u>= <u>(-6x + 10)</u>
-2 -2
y = 3x - 5
