Answer:
To do this, just do 12 divided by 4.80 = 2.5 dollars per can at Corner Grocery, and at Max's Market 15 divided by 5.25 = 2.85 per can. So the Corner Grocery has a better unit price by 35 cents.
Thanks for your question.
The solution is x=6 and y=5
It is okay to take the inverse of both side given that you remember to exclude the value that make the denominator zero which is in this case r=-1
Answer:
x=10/3 y=17/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use substitution to solve your equation. Plug in y=2x-1 into y=1/2x+4. This makes (2x-1)=1/2x+4. Simplify this to get 3/2x-1=4. Simplify it again to get 3/2x=5. No one likes fractions so multiply both sides by 2 to get 3x=10. Simplify this and get x=10/3. Plus 10/3 into one of the equations. You can pick anyone but I picked y=2x-1. Because you know x=10/3, you put y=2(10/3)-1. Simplify this and get y=20/3-1. Convert 1 into a fraction and get y=20/3-3/3. Simplify this and get y=17/3.
Therefore,
x=10/3 y=17/3
