-3y = x...so we sub in -3y for x in the other equation
-x + 7y = 70
-(-3y) + 7y = 70
3y + 7y = 70
10y = 70
y = 70/10
y = 7
so we sub in 7 for y in either of the original equations to find x
-3y = x
-3(7) = x
-21 = x
so ur solution is (-21,7)
Answer:
$528
Step-by-step explanation:
If cost is proportional to order quantity, the cost for 17+5 = 22 cases of cups will be 22/17 times the cost for 17 cases:
(22/17)($408) = $528
