the answer will be 16x
1 gallon 16x as constant variable
Answer is c. you subtract 4 to both sides and get 3x=21 and then divide 3 to both sides to get x=7
You would want to order 44 of the toys.
25 x 120% = 30 (2013)
30 x 120% = 36 (2014)
36 x 120% = 43.2, you can have .2 of a toy so you round up to the next whole number. So 44 (2015)
Hope this helps! :D
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
7*9=63
63/6= 10 remainder 3
Therefore each friend gets 10 boxes of pencils and Steve gets the leftover 3 boxes of pencils
Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!
