Answer:

(20,5) is NOT a solution of the equation 6x+10y=150.

The point (20,5) implies that there are 20 small tables and 5 large tables.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a catering company is expecting 150 people to attend the wedding. There are two types of tables, ones which can fit 6 people and ones which can fit 10 people.

If there are x tables which can fit 6 people and there are y tables which can fit 10 people, we can express the total number of people that can fit on all available tables as: 6x+10y.

Since there are total 150 people expected in the wedding, the equation can be framed as: 6x+10y=150.

Let us check if the point (20,5) is a solution of the equation.

6*20+10*5=150

120+50=150

170=150

Since we get a false statement, therefore, (20,5) is NOT a solution of the equation 6x+10y=150.

The point (20,5) implies that there are 20 small tables and 5 large tables.

What are the coordinates of one of the vertices of a rectangle when two sides are given by the lines x - 3y = -8 and 3x + y = 6?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

(1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3y = -8

3x + y = 6

Isolate a variable in one of the equations:

y = 6 - 3x

Substitute the value of y into the other equation:

x - 3(6 - 3x) = -8

Use distributive property:

x - 18 + 9x = -8

Combine like terms:

10x - 18 = -8

Isolate the variable:

10x = 10

x = 1

Substitute the value of x into any equation:

3(1) + y = 6

3 + y = 6

Isolate the variable:

y = 3

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

8 lbs 5 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

When you add 3 lbs, 2 lbs, and 2 lbs you get 7 lbs.

There are 16 oz in a lb. When you add the number of oz you get 21 oz which is the same as 1 lb and 5 oz.

you then add 7 lbs to 1 lb and 5 oz and get 8 lbs and 5 oz.
