Answer:
This system has no solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we try to solve:
- 5x + 8 = 5x + 3
- 5x + 8 - 3 = 5x
- 5x + 5 = 5x
- 5x - 5x + 5 = 5x - 5x
- 5 = 0
Since there are no x values left over and the remaining solution is zero, there is no solution for this equation.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
21 more mugs were brought this year than last year.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve by subtracting the initial amount of mugs from the final amount of mugs.
To find the amount of mugs hung up this year, we will use the equation: m = 12w where m = the number of mugs & w = the number of wooden hangers. The 12 represents the amount of mugs per wooden hanger.
We can plug in 3 for w since 3 wooden hangers were filled up and we would get 12(3) = m = 36 mugs
Now we subtract last year's total mugs hung up from this year's total mugs hung up.
We end up with 36 - 15 = 21
The correct answer is: [B]: " y = 9 " .

I’m pretty sure it’s 86, because you need to subtract 2 from the first side then you have 86 = X
