Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A= 10(9+4)/2 = 130/2 = 65
A. 400, 500
The question mentions you make a profit, which is to make more money than what you spent or put in. All other choices would make the statement say you ended up having less money, which is money lost, not profit.
x+y=23
x-y=5
First, add the equations.
2x=28
x=14
Then...
14+y=23
y=9
Therefore the answer is...
x=14 y=9
Answer:
length=8 , wide=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let length=x and wide=y
convert the question into two equations
3+y=x .......1
xy=40 .......2
so we need to substitute x into y or y into x
x=3+y ,
(3+y)y=40
y²+3y=40
y²+3y-40=0
from that use calculator or manually factorise it
(y+8)(y-5)=0
y= –8 , y=5
we need to choose positive answer so y=5
then find for x
5x=40
x=8
