Four glasses of milk and 2 snack bars have a total of 72 carbohydrates (carbs), and 2 glasses of milk and 3 snack bars have a t

Travka [436]

One glass of milk has 11 carbs and one snack bar has 14 carbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Glass of milk = x

Snack bar = y

According to given statement;

4x+2y=72 Eqn 1

2x+3y=64 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 2

$2(2x+3y=64)\\4x+6y=128\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 3

$(4x+6y)-(4x+2y)=128-72\\4x+6y-4x-2y=56\\4y=56$

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{56}{4}\\y=14$

Putting y=14 in Eqn 1

$4x+2(14)=72\\4x+28=72\\4x=72-28\\4x=44$

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{44}{4}\\x=11$

One glass of milk has 11 carbs and one snack bar has 14 carbs.

Answer:

y = - 49

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

7x - 2y = 35 ← substitute x = - 9 into the equation

7(- 9) - 2y = 35, that is

- 63 - 2y = 35 ( add 63 to both sides )

- 2y = 98 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

y = - 49
