The solution of the system of equations that is given is (2,-1).

Given a system of equations are 5x+y=9 and 3x+2y=4.

A system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of one or more linear equations involving the same variables.  A solution to a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables such that all the equations are simultaneously satisfied.

The given equations are

5x+y=9    ......(1)

3x+2y=4  ......(2)

Here, the substitution method is used to solve the system of equations.

Find the value of y from equation (1) by subtracting 5x from both sides.

5x+y-5x=9-5x

y=9-5x

To find the value of x substitute the value of y in equation (2).

3x+2(9-5x)=4

Apply the distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac as

3x+2×9-2×5x=4

3x+18-10x=4

Combine the like terms on the left side as

-7x+18=4

Subtract 18 from both sides and get

-7x+18-18=4-18

-7x=-14

Divide both sides by -7 and get

(-7x)÷(-7)=(-14)÷(-7)

x=2

Substitute the value of x in equation (1) and get

5(2)+y=9

10+y=9

Subtract 10 from both sides

10+y-10=9-10

y=-1

Hence, the solution of system of equations 5x+y=9 and 3x+2y=4 is (2,-1).

Find last year’s salary if, after a 3% pay raise, this year’s salary is $32,960.
belka [17]

Answer:

$32000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let last years salary was $x

Therefore,

x + 3% of x = $32960

x + 0.03x = $32960

1.03x=$32960

x = 32960/1.03

x = $32,000

So, last year's salary was $32000.

Sabric and Jessica disagree over an inequality statement. Sabric claims that -3.613 &gt; -3.63. Jessica claims that -3.613 &lt;
Yanka [14]
Sabric's claim is correct because in a number line -3.613 is closer to the zero than -3.63.
_______________________________________________________________
      -3.63                                       -3.613                                    0          1          2..

Also the place value can tell you which is greater:       3.613
Notice the 1 and the 3:                                                     3.63
The smaller number when using negatives is closer to the zero than the bigger one.
