4(x+6y)-9(2x-5y) simplified with steps : )

Step-by-step explanation:

Write a system of equations to model the situation. Add the equations to eliminate the y-term and then solve for x. Substitute the value for x into one of the original equations to find y. Check your answer by substituting x = 8 and y = 2 into the original system.

-14x+69y

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+24y-18x+45y

-14x+69y

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!
