Will give medal and fan for the correct answer!! Question will be posted in attachment
you need to solve that system of equations for x and y
I already tried plugging in the numbers but nothing is correct
x+y=12 14x+10y=140 [x+y=12]∗10 10x+10y=120 14x +10y = 140 - (10x +10y = 120) 4x = 20 x = 5 x + y = 12 5 + y = 12 y = 7
there should be one answer to where you plug the numbers into both equations and both equations are true
it looks like all the answers make the first equation true, so look at the second one
Do you know how to do this one?
its the exact same concept
Oh.. i'll try it
ok, maybe @Jadeishere will come in and give you the answer, then you wont have to learn anything
Lol just try it, and if you do anything wrong, I'll help you out :) @billj5 Okay, I appreciate your bluntness but if you could save that crap for the Prive messaging, I think all of OS would be obliged instead of having to hear your words openly.
@billj5 I'm VERY sorry i;m just trying to get help... I never asked for the answer. You don't need to be so. RUDE!
@Cammie_1D5SOS i was not talking to you regarding that, i never said you asked for the answer
Just read the way you said that @billj5 You were VERY rude
@Cammie_1D5SOS ok yes, maybe, but I don't really see the point in giving someone the answer, wastes everyones time
But he's kind of right, I don't know how to explain the process very well, but I know the answers off the top of my head..
if you wanted to know the steps @Jadeishere showed before she gave you the answer you can find that anywhere on the internet, just look for solving systems of equations, but the point of posting here is to get step by step help,
answers to your questions regarding the process
@Jadeishere im sorry im sure you had no bad intentions on what you posted, i was rude
Here's the thing, I don't look on the internet to help people. I try to help people with the knowledge I already have. If you want to explain to her the process, go ahead. I'm not arguing.
@Jadeishere yes im sorry, i dont mind your post if you didnt post the answer also, many people will just ignore all the steps and just look at your answer, so why even bother wasting your time?
the post was good though, showed the steps clearly
I don't think Cammie did that. Well, hopefully not. Anywho, I'm going to stop posting on her question so she won't keep getting tons of notifications :) Bye now and have fun on OS :)
