x + y = 3
x =6 - 4y
Solution
Use the top equation to substitute for x in the second equation.
x = 3 - y
Put this result into the second given equation and solve for y
3 - y = 6 - 4y Add 4y to both sides.
3 - y + 4y = 6 Combine on the left
3 + 3y = 6 Subtract 3 from both sides
3 - 3 + 3y = 6 - 3 Combine
3y = 3 Divide by 3
3y/3 = 3/3 Combine
y = 1
=========================
x + y = 3 but y = 1
x + 1 = 3 Subtract 1 from both sides.
x + 1 - 1 =3 - 1
x = 2
Answer
x = 2
y = 1
I say go with -(1/2) ^ 750
Answer:
13.2 or 13 1/5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/5 in/day * 6 days = 13.2 or 13 1/5 inches
OR
2 1/5 in
+ 2 1/5 in
+ 2 1/5 in
+ 2 1/5 in
+ 2 1/5 in
+ 2 1/5 in
------------
13 1/5 in
I completely forgot how to do this but maybe multiply the angles I’m so sorry
