Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- x + y + z = -3 --> (1)
- 3y - z = 4 --> (2)
- 2x - y - 2z = -5 --> (3)
<u>Add up (1) and (2)</u>
- x + 3y + y + z - z = -3 + 4 ⇒ x + 4y = 1 --> (4)
<u>Double (2) and subtract from (3)</u>
- 2x - y - 2z - 2(3y - z) = -5 - 2(4) ⇒ 2x - y - 2z - 6y + 2z = -5 - 8
- 2x - 7y = -13 --> (5)
<u>Double (4) and subtract (5)</u>
- 2(x + 4y) - 2x + 7y = 2 + 13 ⇒ 2x + 8y - 2x + 7y = 15 ⇒ 15y = 15 ⇒ y = 1
<u>Finding x</u>
- x + 4(1) = 1 ⇒ x = 1 - 4 ⇒ x = -3
<u>Finding z</u>
<u>So the answer is: </u>
Answer:
Monica paid $171 while Rachel paid $207
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Monic and Rachel purchased a tv for $378.
Let the amount spent by Monica be X and the amount spent by Rachel be Y.
Thus;
x + y = 378 - - - - (eq 1)
We are told that Monica paid $36 less then Rachel. Thus;
y = x + 36
Or y - x = 36 - - - (eq 2)
Add eq 1 & eq 2 together to give;
2y = 378 + 36
2y = 414
y = 414/2
y = $207
Put 207 for x in eq 1 to get;
x + 207 = 378
x = 378 - 207
x = $171
Thus;
Monica paid $171 while Rachel paid $207

Step-by-step explanation:

S= Sydney
devaughn= s-13
so s+s-13=75
2s-13=75
now I think you can solve the rest.
