Equation 1: y = -2x + 1
Equation 2: y = 2x - 3
Since both equations already have y isolated, we are able to simply set the right side of both equations equal to each other. Since we know that the value of y must be the same, we can do this.
-2x + 1 = 2x - 3
1 = 4x - 3
4 = 4x
x = 1
Then, we need to plug our value of x back into either of the original two equations and solve for y. I will be plugging x back into equation 2 above.
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(1) - 3
y = 2 - 3
y = -1
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer:
Side x = 2.12132 = 3√2/2
Step-by-step explanation:
I used a triangle calculator to find side x
1. Move the negative sign to the left.
- 
*-50
2. Use this rule: 
=
-
3. Simplify - 
4. Move the negative sign to the left.
-(-950x/8)
5. Simplify 950x/8 to 475x/4
6. Remove parentheses.
Let’s designate the number of banana splits sold as x. That means the number of sundaes sold is x + 8.
Now if we put this into an equation, also keeping in mind their costs, we get:
3(x) + 2(x + 8) = 156
Now to solve for x:
3x + 2(x + 8) = 156
3x + 2x + 16 = 156
5x = 140
x = 28
That means you’ve sold 28 banana splits and 36 sundaes! :)
