Answer:
answer is 11.9...... have a good day
Answer:
x + y = 500
215x + 615y = 187,500
Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation can show the amount of land. The farmer has 500 acres to plant corn, x, and cotton, y.
x + y = 500
The second equation can show the cost. The farmer has $187,500 to invest when corn costs $215 per acre and cotton costs $615 per acre.
215x + 615y = 187,500
The system of equations is
x + y = 500
215x + 615y = 187,500
write out the equation:
8y=3+7y (I'm assuming y is the amount of comic books)
8=3+7
8=10
Obviously the equation isn't equal. The nonfiction is greater. By the way, I took out the y because I assumed that y was the amount of books and there was no need to write out 8 times one. On a test, make sure you specify this of the teacher may take off points, if she is using Common Core.
