Answer:
So a bag of chip costs $2.39
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = cost of a bag of chip
Let y = cost of a box of pretzel
Micheal buys two bags of chips and three boxes of pretzels for $5.13
This means
2x + 3y = 5.13 - - - - - - - - - -1
He then buys another bag of chips and 2 boxes of pretzels for $3.09
This means
x + 2y = 3.09 - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Solving equation 1 and equation 2 simultaneously and using the elimination method,
Multiply equation 1 by 1 and equation 2 by 2
2x + 3y = 5.13
2x + 6y = 6.18
Subtracting,
-3y = -1.05
y = -1.05/-3= $0.35
Put y= 0.35 in equation, x + 2y = 3.09
x + 2(0.35)= 3.09
x + 0.7= 3.09
x = 3.09-0.7 = $ 2.39
So a bag of chip costs $2.39
7.75+4.50
Then this equals 12.25 ; You gone want to divide this
519.25 \ 12.25 you get $42.38 or $42.39 if you round.
Or 4.50 x 60 is $270
7.75 x 30 is $232 which is closet to $519.25 which will give u $502.50
A would have to be greater than 1 to get a vertical stretch
(x, y) = (
,
)
given the 2 equations
5x - 3y - 10 = 0 → (1)
x + y - 7 = 0 → (2)
rearrange (2) to obtain y in terms of x
y = 7 - x → (3)
Substitute y = 7 - x into (1)
5x - 3(7 - x) - 10 = 0
5x - 21 + 3x - 10 = 0
8x - 31 = 0 ( add 31 to both sides )
8x = 31 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 
Substitute this value into (3) for y
y = 7 - x =
-
=
