Answer:
x = - 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+ 3 = x - 2
Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction
4x + 9 = 3x - 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
x + 9 = - 6 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
x = - 15
Answer:
(15, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's generate two systems of equations that fit this scenario.
Number of trips to the airport = x
Number of trips from the airport = y
Total number of trips to and from the airport = 27
Thus:
=> equation 1.
Total price for trips to the Airport = 14*x = 14x
Total price of trips from the airport = 7*y = 7y
Total collected for the day = $294
Thus:
=> equation 2.
Multiply equation 1 by 7, and multiply equation 2 by 1 to make both equations equivalent.
7 ×
1 ×
Thus:
=> equation 3
=> equation 4
Subtract equation 4 from equation 3
-7x = -105
Divide both sides by -7
x = 15
Substitute x = 15 in equation 1
Subtract both sides by 15
The ordered pair would be (15, 12)
