Asack weighs60.5kg is recorded to have weighed 62.65 find the percentage error

So the first thing we do is to multiply the top equation by 3. the reason i want to do this is i notice there will be a 6y on both equations and can possibly add/subtract them. so we get 6y = -3x + 27. adding that and the second equation we get 6x = 27-15 which is 12. divide by 6 and we get 2. ∴ x = 2. substituting 2 into the first equation we get 2y = -2 + 9 which is 7. divide by 2 and we get 7/2. ∴ y = 7/2, x = 2.

Hey there,   128 *(2/3) = 85.3

85.3-64 = 21.3

so laura has already added 85.3 grams of chocolate powder and she has gone over the amount specified in the recipe by 21.3 grams

hope i ! have a great  day!
