Let no. of pens be x.
Pens : x
Pencils: x+8
Total: 2x+8
Student takes 1 pen and 5 pencils.
Remainder: 2x+8 - 5 -1 = 2x+2
2x+2 = 26
2x= 24
x = 12 (original no. of pens)
x+ 8 = 20 (original no of pencils)
There are 12 pens at first and 20 pencils.
After 1 pen is taken, 11 pens are left.
After 5 pencils are taken, 20-5=15 pencils are left.
Answer:
B= 9/2 Hope this helped <3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
4(b−3)=6
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
4(b−3)=6
(4)(b)+(4)(−3)=6(Distribute)
4b+−12=6
4b−12=6
Step 2: Add 12 to both sides.
4b−12+12=6+12
4b=18
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4
Answer:
The answer is x=9 and/or x = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a quadratic formula meaning that you must take the a value (1) b value (3) and the c value (108) and plug it into the quadratic formula.

which simplifies to -3 add or subtract the sqrt of 441 divided by two.
Answer:
x=103/265 y=18/53
Step-by-step explanation:
5x -9y=1-----------(i)
-7x+2y=-5-----------(ii)
Multiplying eq 1 with 7 gives
35x-63y=7---------eq(iii)
Multiplying eq 2 with 5 gives
-35x+10y=-25--------eq(iv)
adding eq 3 qnd eq 4
35x-63y-35x+10y=7-25
-53y=-18
y=18/53--------eq5
Putting the value of y from eq 5 in eq 1
5x-9(18/53)=-5
5x- 162/53=-5
5x=-5 +162/53
5x= -265+162/53
5x=103/53
x=103/265
