  1. This is one confusing question... But here is what I did
    x = 2y + 1
    y = \(3y^{2}\) + 2x

    So plug in Y to solve for X
    x = 2 (\(3y^{2}\) + 2x) + 1
    x = \(-2y^{2}\) - \(\frac{1}{3}\)
    Not sure if that's completely correct, but I'm positive I didn't make any mistakes...


    5. You have to find the multiples of 60 so...

    1 60
    2 30
    3 20
    4 15
    5 12  <---

    7 = 12 - 5
