Charmaine= x
William=x+3
3 times Charmaine = 3x
2times William = 2x+6
5x+6=76
5x=76-6
5x=70
X=14
Charmaine is 14
William is 3 years older so is 17
Check:
17x2= 34
14x3=42
34+42=76
So Charmaine is 14
William is 17
Answer:
The answer is B: (1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
(solved using elimination method)
-2x+y=0
y=x+1
-x+y=1
-2x+y=0
x+y=-1
-x=-1
x=1
-1+y=1
y=2
(x,y)=(1,2)
Answer: the answer to this is 9/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
let the larger and smaller number be x and y respectively
first condition
x + y = 49
second condition
3x = 2y+97
3x-2y =97
Multiplying first condition by two and adding both equations
2x + 2y = 98
<u>3x -2y = 97</u>
5x = 195
x = 195/5 = 39
putting the value of x in
x + y = 49
y = 49 -39 = 10
again
