Answer:

41 inches of wire will cost 164 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

1st Method

Use proportions!

18/ 72 = 41/ c

Cross multiply

18 * c = 72 * 41

18c = 2952 divide both sides by 18

<em>c = 164</em>

2nd Method.

Find the rate of the costs. r = rate

18*r = 72

r = 4 cents/inch

Now that you've found the rate you can multiply it by 41 inches to find the cents the wire costs!

41 inch * r (cents/inch)          inches cancels out.

41 * 4 = 164

<em>164 cents</em>

Find y<br>Solve the simultaneous <br>equations<br><br><br>3x + 2y = 27 3x - Y = 9<br>​
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find y, we need to eliminate x in this system of equations:

3\cdot x + 2\cdot y = 27 (1)

3\cdot x - y = 9 (2)

From (1) and (2):

x = \frac{27-2\cdot y}{3}

x = \frac{9+y}{3}

Then, we equalize both expressions and solve for y:

\frac{27-2\cdot y}{3} = \frac{9+y}{3}

27-2\cdot y = 9 + y

3\cdot y = 18

y = 6
