Solve the system of linear equations by substitution x+4y =37 y = -x + 16

1 answer:

4 0

You plug -x+16 in for y in x+4y=37 to get x after you multiply x+4y=37 by -1.
-x-4(-x+16)=-37
-x+4x-64=-37
3x-64=-37
3x=27
x=9
Then you plug 9 into either equation to get y.
y=-x+16
y=-(9)+16
y=7

x=9 and y=7

The answer to your problem would be 400 because to find the answer you need to multiply 120 by .3 to get the answer because 3 % means per 100 and that is why you make it .3 hope i help.
