How would you create a system of linear equations to solve using substitution for this problem?
1 answer:
we have
x ----> number of hats the sold
y ----> number of scarves they sold
so
12x+15y=690 ------> equation A
y=x+10 -----> equation B
Solve the system of equations
Using substitution Method
substitute equation B in equation A
12x+15(x+10)=690
solve for x
12x+15x+150=690
27x=690-150
27x=540
x=20
Find out the value of y
y=x+10
y=20+10
y=30
therefore
The answer is
<h2>20 hats and 30 scarves</h2>

the formula for finding the area of a triangle is 
the base is 27 and the height is 12

<span>A) 5x + 2y= -17
B) 3x -2y = -7
Adding the 2 equations, we get
8x = -24
x = -3
</span><span>B) 3*-3x -2y = -7
-9 - 2y = -7
2y = -2
y = -1
