Answer:
(3, 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Set 3x and 2x+3 equal to each other forming an equation in x.
3x=2x+3
Solve for x.
x=3
Substitute the given value of x into the equation y=3x.
y=3x3
Solve for y.
y=9
(x, y) = (3, 9)
Hope this helps :)
The mistake is there is no parenthesis around 4x+12

Answer:
$8.80
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the new price, you need to add 60% of the original price (5.50) to the original price. You have two options:
1) multiply $5.50*0.6 to get 60% of the original price. You would get $3.30. Then add $3.30+$5.50, which equals $8.80. This way takes longer but shows you all the steps.
2) The shorter way is to simply multiply $5.50*1.6, which also equals $8.80. This works because the "1" automatically adds the 5.50 to 60% of the original price, this way you don't have to multiply then add.
If you don't understand how the second way works or your teacher taught you #1, just do it the first way.
