Answer:
Jumper, y = 172
Shirt, x = - 105
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Shirt = x
Jumper = y
5x + 4y = 163 - - (1)
3x + 2y = 29 - - - (2)
Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 5
15x + 12y = 489 - - - (3)
15x + 10y = 145 - - - (4)
Subtract :
12y - 10y = 489 - 145
2y = 344
y = 344 / 2
y = 172
Put y = 172 in (3)
15x + 12(172) = 489
15x + 2064 = 489
15x = 489 - 2064
15x = - 1575
x = - 105
The values ;
Jumper, y = 172
Shirt, x = - 105

ANSWER
EXPLANATION
Given the points P(2,-1) and Q(-9,-6),the coordinates of the point that partition the directed line segment PQ in the ratio 3:2 is given by
Where m=3 and n=2
The point is
The answer is 78. This is because you change 8 2/3 into a improper fraction which is 26/3. Then do 26/3×9/1. You should cross cancel so cancel out 3 and change it into 1 and change 9 into 3. So now your problem is 26×3=78.
