7x + 15 = 38
7x = 38 - 15
7x = 23
x = 23/7 (twenty- three sevenths)
Answer:
Option D is correct.
13x = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of equation is given:
....[1]
.....[2]
Multiply equation [1] by 5 to both sides we have;
.....[3]
Using elimination method:
Add [2] and [3] equations to eliminate y and solve for x, we have;
Divide both sides by 13 we get;
x = 3
Substitute x in [1] we have;
2(3)-y = -4
6-y = -4
Subtract 6 from both sides we have;
-y = -10
Divide both sides by -1 we have;
y = 10
⇒Solution: (3, 10)
Therefore, an equation can replace 3x+5y = 59 in the original system and still produce the same solution is,
13x = 39
Answer:
The discovery of new resources can cause the LRAS curve to move.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the short-run, a new resource will not impact supply
Like the supply for maritime transportation when the steam-engine were invented.
At the beginning of the industrial revolution, the ship keep relying on sails. But, as time passes, the adoption of the new resource and method of production push the Long Run Aggregate Supply. As more transportation was possible with steam-engine using coal.
That will be the case for an improvement in the method of production. Then, following the same example, a change in a better quality of the resource like, replacing the coal engines with diesel engine generates an improvement in the quantity supplied as it is more efficient and can be used
X-12=20
x=20+12
x=32
answer is 32

Given Information
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people = 165
Adult = $6
Child = $2
Total collected = $618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assumptions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of adults and y be the number of children
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equations
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people
x + y = 165
Total amount collected
6x + 2y = 618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: The two equations are x + y = 165 and 6x + 2y = 618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The question is not asking for it but if you need to solve the equation to find the answer to x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Present the two equations and solve for x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 165 ------------------------- (eqn 1)
6x + 2y = 618 ------------------------- (eqn 2)
(eqn 1) :
x + y = 165
x = 165 - y ------------------------- substitute into (eqn 2)
6(165 - y) + 2y = 618
990 - 6y + 2y = 618
4y = 990 - 618
4y = 372
y = 93 ------------------------- substitute into (eqn 1)
x + y = 165
x + 93 = 165
x = 165 - 93
x = 72
x = 72 and y = 93
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: 72 adults and 93 children
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
