Two equations 

let c the calories in carrot
let h the  <span>calories in </span><span>hershey's kisses
</span><span>

4c + 8h = 230                eq 1</span>
10 c + 7 h = 263             eq 2  


to solve the solution  we multiply eq  1 by 10 
we multiply <span>eq  2 by 4
</span>
40 c + 80 h =  2300
40c + 28 h = 1052 

we subtract the two equations we get
 52  h = 1248 

h= 24 

and so in replacing h = 24 in the equation we get c = 9.5

Number 8 please it will help a lot
pickupchik [31]
Well it all depends on the object you are using but in this case lets say remote control cars. You can have an example like "we drove the car around the building twice. the first time it was -8 than how fast it was supposed to go. the second time it was 9. In which round was the car faster?" I dont think i helped very much but i hope i did

Hat is the value of x in the equation 4 x plus 8 y equals 40, when y equals 0.8? 4.6 8.4 10 12
Elan Coil [88]

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 8y = 40

4x + (8×0.8) = 40

4x + 6.4 = 40

4x = 33.6

4x÷4 = 33.6 ÷ 4

x = 8.4
