-2x + 6y = 6
6y - 6 = 2x
6(y-1) = 2x
(1/2) * 6(y-1) = 2x * (1/2)
x = 3(y-1)
------------
If, x = 3(y-1),
-7 * 3(y-1) + 8y = -5
-21 * (y-1) + 8y = -5
-21y + 21 + 8y = -5
21 + 5 = 21y - 8y
26 = 13y
y = 26/13
Therefore: y=2.
----------
If y=2,
x = 3(2-1) = 3
-----------
Answers:
x=3 and y=2.
8(x + 5) = 56
first step id to distribute the 8 through the parenthesis
8x + 40 = 56
That questions has to do with equivalent fractions, express a fraction in eights.
six and three quarters
= 6 3/4
<span>= 6 + 3/4
</span>= 24/4 + 3/4
= 27/4
and to convert that fraction to eights, just multiply numerator and denominator by 2:
= (27*2)/(4*2)
= 54/8
there are 54 eights in six and three quarters
Answer:
this is your answer look it once.
