Make a system of equations and solve for each variable.
3m+8v=53
5m+2v=26
m= movie cost
v= game cost
multiply the bottom equation by 4(combination method)
3m+8v=53
20m+8v=104. Subtract
-17m = -51
m= 3
Plug back into one of the equations
5(3)+2v=26
15+2v=26
2v=11
v=5.5
m=$3
v=$5.5
Answer:
20 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Joe = J
Sydney = S
J = 5 + S
J + S = 45
Substitute
5 + S + S = 45
Add
5 + 2S = 45
Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation
2S = 40
Divide both sides of the equation by 2
S = 20
Sydney is 20 years old
Hope this helps :)
If x orignial price than 60/100*x=80/100*(x-40) and selling price =60/100*x=96
B "it's" means (it is) and that would not make sense if it fell on it is side .
