Solve the system of equations by elimination. 2x+8y=10 -4x-9y=-13 x = y =

1 answer:

8 0

So use cancelation
multiply first equation by 2
2x+8y=10
times 2
4x+16y=20
now add

4x+16y=20
<u>-4x-9y=-13 +
</u>0x+7y=7
7y=7
divide by 7
y=1

subsittue

2x+8y=10
2x+8(1)=10
2x+8=10
subtract 8 from both sides
2x=2
divide by 2
x=1

x=1
y=1

A.) 0.35x + 42 ≤ 70

She wants the truck for one day, which will cost $45. We don't know how far the truck is traveling so that is the variable. She cannot spend more than $70, since that is her budget.

b.) Solve for x using the above equation:

0.35x + 42 ≤ 70
0.35x ≤ 28
x ≤ 80
