Hello
x = 3y - 6
2x - 4y = 8
We need to start by solving 3y - 6 for x
Substitute 3y -6 for x in 2x
2x - 4y = 8
2(3y - 6) - 4y = 8
2y - 12 = 8
2y = 8 + 12
2y = 20
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2 = 20/2
y = 10
Now, substitute 10 for y in x= 3y
x = 3y - 6
x = 3(10) - 6
x = 30 - 6
x= 24
Answer : x = 24 and y=10
I hope this help!
I'm assuming the 59% achievement means, markup, so hmmmm well, if the bananas cost him $0.24 or 24cents per pound, so a markup of 59% is just 59% of 0.24 then.
whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.
therefore, 59% of 0.24 is just (59/100) * 0.24, or 0.1416.
so, if we add 0.1416 to the 0.24, the selling price will be 0.3816, or just 38cents per pound of bananas.
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x^2 (x + 4) - 25(x + 4)
y = (x + 4)(x^2 - 25)
y = (x + 4)(x + 5)(x - 5)
- x - 5 is a yes
- x + 2 is a no
- x - 4 is a no
The numbers are: 2n and (2n+2)
we can suggest this equation:
4(2n)=2(2n+2)-12
We compute this equation:
8n=4n+4-12
8n-4n=-8
4n=-8
n=-8/4
n=-2
we compute the numbers:
2n=2(-2)=-4
2n+2=-4+2=-2
answer: the numbers are -4 and -2.
