Answer:
x=−7/5and y=−6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step: Substitute−2x−4foryiny=3x+3:
y=3x+3
−2x−4=3x+3
−2x−4+−3x=3x+3+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)
−5x−4=3
−5x−4+4=3+4(Add 4 to both sides)
−5x=7
−5x
−5
=
7
−5
(Divide both sides by -5)
x=−7/5
The Square Root of 245 is 15.65 (rounded to 2 dec. Places)
Let n = cost of 1 notebook
Let p = cost of 1 pencil
Then,
3n + 4p = 8.5
5n + 8p = 14.5
You can solve for one variable in terms of the other and then substitute into the remaining equation.
3n + 4p = 8.5
+ 5n + 8p = 14.5
Multiply the top equation by -2 so that the p-containing terms cancel each other out:
-2(3n + 4p = 8.5)
+ 5n + 8p = 14.5
-n + 0 = -2.5
So after dividing both sides by -1, we see that n = $2.5. Plugging into the first equation gives p = $0.25.
3n + 4p = 8.5
5n + 8p = 14.5
