Multiply first example by 3 and subtract by second example, you will get the following:

3*(5x + 2y) = 3*22   =>  3*5x + 3*2y = 66      =>  15x + 6y = 66
now subtraction:
(15x + 6y) - (-2x + 6y) = 66 - 3
15x + 6y + 2x - 6y = 63
15x + 2x + 6y - 6y = 63
17x = 63
x = 63/17 ≈ 3.705..... and as it says to round to the nearest tenth our answer would be: x = 3.7

The trick to solving this problem is to know and remember that the sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Thus, (6x+1) + (5x-17) + (9x-24) = 180.

20x = -40, so x = -2 (answer)

2. TANIA HAS A JOB OFFER. SHE IS OFFERED EITHER $50 PER DAY OR $30 PER DAY PLUS A COMMISSION
DerKrebs [107]
50=30+3x
(Subtract 30 from both sides)
20=3x
(Divide each side by 3)
6.67=x

She would need to sell 7 plants per day if she wanted to make at least $50 a day if she took the second deal
