The figure is a trapezoid.
Thank You :)
For this question, you would want to set up a system of equations.
Let x = Dog Food
Let y = Cat Food
5x+2y=20
x+4y=13
The next step is to eliminate a variable or do substitution. I personally find elimination easier. To eliminate the y, multiply the top equation by -2.
-10x-4y=-40
x+4y=13
The y's will cancel and you are left with:
-9x=-27
Divide by -9 on both sides and you get x=3. Now you want to take 3 and substitute it back into one of the original equations.
3+4y=13
Solve for y
4y=10
y=2.5
Plug both values into the top equation to check the values.
5(3)+2(2.5)=20
15+5=20
20=20
The answers are correct. Dog food is 3 dollars or euros and cat food is 2.50 euros.
Please mark brainiest and good luck :D
Answer: x=(z-a)/b
Step-by-step explanation:
First subtract a from both sides to begin isolating x on its side of the equation. This gives you bx=z-a. Next, divide b from both sides to finish isolating x. This gives you x=(z-a)/b
There are many expressions equivalent, it just needs the answer to also equal 2.
