2y + 2x = 6
2y - x = 12
Subtract
3x = -6, x = -2
2(-2) + 2y = 6
-4 + 2y = 6
2y = 10, y = 5
Final solution: x = -2, y = 5
Answer:
yes, you can :)
Step-by-step explanation:
A square with a perimeter of 48 inches would have 12 in sides, while a triangle of the same perimeter would have 16 in sides. The ratio would be 16/12 which simplified to 4/3.
Answer:
Take the numbers 50 and 30. Their greatest common factor is 10, since 10 is the greatest factor that both numbers have in common. To find the GCF of greater numbers, you can factor each number to find their prime factors, identify the prime factors they have in common, and then multiply those together.

Answer: the total amount of money that they wanted to raise is $2400
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the total amount of money that Keelan and her friends want to raise.
After the first event they raise $240 which is 10% of the total amount they want to raise. The amount of money that raised after the first event is expressed as
10/100 × x = 0.1 × x = 0.1x
Therefore,
0.1x = 240
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.1, it becomes
x = 240/0.1
x = $2400
