The sum of a number and 5 times a second number is represented by the equation a+5b=19 . The sum of half of the first number and

TiliK225 [7]

Here you have a system of 2 equations and 2 unknowns. An easy way to solve this type is to isolate one of the variables.

12a + 2b = 8
2b = 8 - 12a
b =
$b = \frac{8 - 12a }{2}$
b = 4 - 6a

Now plug 4 - 6a into equation 1 to solve for a.

a + 5(4 - 6a) = 19

a + 20 - 30a = 19

-29a = -1

a = 1/29 (answer)

Now plug a into the equation for b

b= 4 - 6(1/29)

b= 110/29 (answer)

Marla bought one necklace and two bracelets for $67.50. Use the following information to determine the amount she paid for each

alexdok [17]

Ooh, scary math

n+2b=67.5
n=27
27+2b=67.5
minus 27 both sides
2b=40.50
divide both sides by 2
b=20.25

a bracelet costs $20.25
