Who’d a thunk it, Mabel why does grim say that to gram on page 46

I think it's because he (grim) was said that to grim because of what she said was so obvious and since gram's name isn't mabel he said that to just let her know how obvious what she said was. (I'm sorry if this is wrong I read the book last year  would've been able to help you more if I was back in 6th grade reading the book)

x=4, y=4

step-by-step explanation:

y=2x-4;

x+2y=12

we can use substitution since the first equation is solved for y

where ever you see y in the second equation, replace it with 2x-4

x + 2(2x-4) = 12

distribute the 2

x+4x-8 = 12

combine like terms

5x-8=12

add 8 to each side

5x-8+8=12+8

5x=20

divide by 5

5x/5 = 20/5

x =4

we still need to solve for y

y = 2x-4

we know x =4

y = 2(4) -4

y = 8-4

y=4

c. would be the answer : )
