You can put this solution on YOUR website!
One problem at a time. No similar problems. You submitted three similar problems.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Don't waste your time nor my time with this nonsense (19% fat _________ ib
\n" ); document.write( "10% fat _________ ib) BTW What is an ib?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I'll set up the third one for you.
\n" ); document.write( ".19x+.10y=.13*87
\n" ); document.write( "x+y=87
\n" ); document.write( "solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "x=87-y
\n" ); document.write( "substitute
\n" ); document.write( ".19(87-y)+.10y=.13*87
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for y
\n" ); document.write( "Then
\n" ); document.write( "plug in
\n" ); document.write( "x=87-y and solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "The rest is left for you. Have fun.
