32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.
Let x be the total number of students.
1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.
We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x
We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x
Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x
Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x
Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x
Equation 1 is
,
Equation 2 is [/tex] 3x-2y = -1 [/tex]
for first equation LCD= 3 *5 = 15 , So we multiply whole equation by 15


Now multiply second equation by -3 , to make the coefficient of y equal and opposite , so that we can apply the elimination method

Add both the equations


Divide both sides by 11

Plug in any one of the equation we get
3(3) -2y = -1
9 - 2y = -1
subtract 9 from both sides
-2y = -10
divide both sides by -2
y=5
So the solution is x= 3 , y= 5
Which means
a. The system is consistent and independent. TRUE
