Answer:

(x, y) = (- 3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 2y = - 7 → (1)

4x - y = - 16 → (2)

multiply all terms in (2) by 2

8x - 2y = - 32 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term

(5x + 8x) + (2y - 2y) = (- 7 - 32)

13x = - 39 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = - 3

Substitute x = - 3 into either (1) or (2) and solve for y

substituting in (1) gives

(5 × - 3) + 2y = - 7

- 15 + 2y = - 7 ( add 15 to both sides )

2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 4

solution is (- 3, 4 )

Jack is playing a game. When a player wins 3 consecutive games, the player receives 10 bonus points and then the player’s total
Paladinen [302]
<span>The function can be described as

b(p)= player receives 10 bonus points 
</span>b(p)= p+10<span>

s(p)= increases 5% of the player’s current points 
</span>s(p)= <span>p*(100%+5%)= p*1.05

then </span><span> (s ∘ b)(p) would be
</span><span>s(p)= p*1.05
(s ∘ b)(p)= (p+10)*1.05
</span>(s ∘ b)(p)= 1.05p+10.5

Ali has x cards.
valentina_108 [34]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ♡ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━  

If Ali has x cards, then Belinda has 2x cards.

If Ali has x cards, then Charlie has x+5 cards.

2x (Belinda) + x+5 (Charlie) + x (Ali) = 33 (total)

2x + x+5 + x = 33

Now simplify the equation... x+x+5 can be simplified as 2x+5.

2x+5 plus 2x can become 4x+5.

So their total number is 4x+5.

So 4x+5=33.

You want to isolate the variables and numbers.

To remove the 5 from the left side, subtract 5 from both sides.

4x+5-5=4x - 33-5=28

So the equation now is 4x=28

To remove the 4, divide each side by 4.

4x÷4=x - 28÷4=7

So x equals 7, Ali has 7 cards.
