Answer: 15 oatmeal cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
There were 25 cookies baked.
Out of these, 3/5 are oatmeal cookies.
The amount of actual oatmeal cookies is:
= fraction of oatmeal cookies * total number of cookies
= 3/5 * 25
= 75 / 5
= 15 oatmeal cookies.
x -y = 1
5x + 3y = 45
Solve the first equation for x: x = y + 1
Substitute x in the second with y + 1
5x + 3y = 45
5(y + 1) + 3y = 45
5y + 5 + 3y = 45
8y + 5 = 45
8y = 40
y = 5
Substitute 5 for y in x = y + 1
x = y + 1
x = 5 + 1
x = 6
Answer: (6, 5)
Answer:
x = -11
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering tripled means multiplied by 3 because of tri, we know that we can use the equation 3x = -33.
To solve this we can divide both sides by 3:
3x = -33
x = -11
This gives our answer of -11.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x - 15y = -6
9x + 11y = 14
-4y = 8
y = -2
3x - 10 = 2
3x = 12
x = 4
(4, -2)
