Please provide an image or other when you ask a question, as you’re not gonna get a clear answer
Because you have two variables and only one equation, you can only solve for approximate answers, and not complete, absolute answers.
<h3><u>You can simplify this equation to x = -4y + 12</u></h3>
y - 3 = -1/4(x + 3)
Distributive property.
y - 3 = -1/4x - 3/4
Multiply all terms by 4.
4y - 12 = -x
Multiply all terms by -1
-4y + 12 = x
I need a picture of the figures to help with this!
Answer:
500 and 900
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x - 300) + 2(x + 100) = 3300 ← distribute parenthesis
3x - 900 + 2x + 200 = 3300
5x - 700 = 3300 ( add 700 to both sides )
5x = 4000 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 800
Then
cost of book = x - 300 = 800 - 300 = 500
cost of pen = x + 100 = 800 + 100 = 900
