17X-7Y. You add or subtract the same variables, in this case you only have two x's and one y. So you add them, because you have a addition sign. 13x+4x and you leave the Y alone, because there is not another Y variable.
Answer:
6:24 or 1:4
Step-by-step explanation:
If you don't have to simplify, then the answer would be 6:24, but if you do, then the answer would be 1:4.
Answer:
Hotdog: $3.00
Hamburger: $4.00
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first time that Bob buys food, we can make an equation to find how much a single hotdog and a single hamburger costs, where:
x = cost of a hotdog
y = cost of a hamburger
He bought 2 hotdogs and 1 hamburger for $10, so the equation for his first time buying food is:
2x + y = 10
For the second time buying food, he bought 1 hotdog and 3 hamburgers for $15, so his equation would be:
x + 3y = 15
To find the value for x and y we need to solve this system of equations using the two equations we just came up with. We can do this multiple ways, but I'll be demonstrating the substitution method.
Using the second equation, we can solve for x by simply subtracting 3y from both sides:
x = 15 - 3y
We can then insert this value of x into the first equation so that way we are only dealing with one variable to solve - y:
2(15-3y) + y = 10
Distribute out the 2 into the paratheses, combine like terms, and then solve for y:
30 - 6y + y = 10
30 - 5y = 10
-5y = -20
y = 4
This means the cost for one hamburger is $4. But we still need to find the price of one hotdog, so we can insert this value of y into the equation we came up with earlier for x, and then solve for x:
x = 15 - 3y
x = 15 - 3(4)
x = 15 - 12
x = 3
So the price of one hotdog is $3 and the price of one hamburger is $4. Hope this helps.
The 24 inch shelve is 2 feet ( 1 foot = 12 inches)
She bout 7 feet of shelves (5 + 2 = 7)
The total cost for the shelves was 7 x 1.25 = $8.75
She spend an additional 90 so her total spent was 90 + 8.75 = $98.75
Now subtract her total from 100 to find the amount of change:
100 - 98.75 = 1.25
The change was $1.25
Ans: $((18-6)÷3)
*It is a double-bracket because there is a bracketed equation inside a bracketed equation, so as to separate the values from the unit, in this case, the $ sign. Take 18-6 to find the total cost of the notepads, and take that value divided by 3, the price of one notepad, to find the number of notepads bought.
