Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be gallons of 7%

Let y be gallons of 3%

364 = x + y

y = 364 - x

364(0.06) = x(0.07) + y(0.03)

364(6) = x(7) + y(3)

364(6) = 7x + 3y

364(6) = 7x + 3(364 - x)

364(6 - 3) = 7x - 3x

364(3) = 4x

x = 273

y = 364 - 273 = 91

273 gallons of 7%

91    gallons of 3%

3=−(−y+6)

3=y+−6(Distribute)

3=y−6

Flip the equation.

y−6=3

Add 6 to both sides.

y−6+6=3+6

y=9

The average weekly salary of two employees is $750. One makes $200 more than the other. Find their salaries.
Anit [1.1K]
So first we start with division:

$750 divided by 2 equals $375.

Since one employee gets more than the other, we need to add more onto his/her salary.

So, next is addition.

$375 plus $200 equals $575.

So, one employee makes $375 while the other has an increase in his salary, so they get paid $575.

Hope I helped you!

Whats a+2 over 2=-1 ??
tia_tia [17]
Not sure what exactly you meant, so i solved for both possibilities...

Answer: a=-2

assuming you mean a+2/2=-1.....

a+2/2=-1
simplify..
a+1=-1
subtract 1 from both sides
a=-2
____________________

Answer: a=-4

assuming you mean (a+2)/2=-1...

(a+2)/2=-1
simplify...
a/2+2/2=-1
simplify
a/2+1=-1
subtract 1 from both sides
a/2=-2
multiply both sides by 2
a=-4
