In march, nick practice soccer for 42 hours. in april nick wants to get even better at soccer and plans to ptactice 18 hours more than he did last month. write an equation to find out how many hours nick plans to practice soccer in april

60 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the amount of hours Nick practice in March and "y" the amount of hours Nick plans to practice in April.

Set up a system of equations:

Applying the Substitution Method, we can substitute the first equation into the second equation in order to find the value of "y". Therefore you get this result:

my answer is$ 12

step-by-step explanation:

because 15 -2=12

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
