Set the equations equal to each other since the x will be the same. Get like terms on the same side and solve.

2x-5=-2/3x+3
2x-5+5=-2/3x+3+5
2x=-2/3x+8
2x+2/3x=-2/3x+2/3x+8
2 2/3x=8
8/3x=8
(3/8)8/3x=8(3/8)
x=3

x=3

Answer:

See below ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the x and y values.

<u>Step 1 : Equate the y expressions.</u>

  • The two equations have given different values for y
  • Therefore by equating them, we can solve for x
  • 2x - 5 = -2/3x + 3

<u>Step 2 : Convert fractions in the equation to whole numbers.</u>

  • The value -2/3 is a fraction
  • We can make it a whole number if multiply throughout by the value of its denominator ⇒ 3
  • 3(2x - 5) = 3(-2/3x + 3)
  • 6x - 15 = -2x + 9

<u>Step 3 : Bring x terms to one side and constant terms to the other.</u>

  • 6x + 2x = 9 + 15
  • 8x = 24
  • <u>x = 3</u>

<u></u>

<u>Step 4 : Solve for y by plugging the value of x into one of the given equations.</u>

  • y = 2(3) - 5
  • y = 6 - 5
  • <u>y = 1</u>

MrRissso [65]
I got 22 because if u do 20 multiplied by 10% that gives u 2 which u then add onto the 20 to get the starting price. 10% of 22 is 2 and then 22-2 = 20 (if u we’re doing it from the starting price)

What is the area of the figure shown below?
german
Área of rectangle= 18 x 14 = 252

Area or triangle=
30-18= 12
12 is the base of the triangle
14 is the height of the triangle
Area of a Triangle= 1/2bh
1/2(12)(14)=84
Área of Triangle= 84

252+84= 336

Answer= 336

Geoff has d donuts. The amount of bagels he has is 3 less than 4 times the amount of donuts.
bazaltina [42]
Bagels = 4d - 3

Four times means 4d and you subtract 3 because Geoff has three less than 4 times.

Answer:

No, Victoria doesn't have enough. She doesn't have enough because 15% off of 139.99 is 118.99. But then their is a 7% sales tax. So once you add the sales tax you get $127.32 and her max is $125.
