Answer:
x= -2 and y= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
since x = 2y -8, substitute this in the first equation
Thus, -3(2y-8) + 2y =12
-6y+24+2y=12
-6y+2y=12-24
-4y=-12
y=3
put the value of y in the second equation,
x=2y-8
x=2(3)-8
x=6-8
x=-2
So, x=-2. y=3
58 plus tip of .20
so
58 times 0.2 = 11.6 is the tip
now we add tax (Presuming we son't tax the tip)
58 times 0.07 = 4.06 the tax
so its
58 + 11.6 + 4.06 = $73.66 total cost
x = 4
First you combine like terms:
8 + 4x = 24
Then solve:
4x = 24 - 8
4x = 16
x = 16/4
x = 4
Answer:
lets say they share the cost in 5 parts, because Anna will distribute 4 time as much as Emily.
120 / 5 = 24
Emily: $24 (1/5 of 120)
Anna: $24 * 4 = $96 (4/5 of 120)
She has 3.878 miles left to hike. (439/500 in fraction form)
