Let s and g represents the numbers of suits and gowns produced.
The number of zippers used is 2s+g.
The number of buttons used is 5s+8g.
In order to use all of the available zippers and buttons, we must have ...
- 2s + g = 171
- 5s + 8g = 576
Cramer's rule tells you the solution to the system
Is given by
- x = (bf-ey)/(bd-ea)
- y = (cd-fa)/(bd-ea)
Using this rule on the equations for zippers and buttons, we have
... s = (1·576 -8·171)/(1·5 -8·2) = -792/-11 = 72
... g = (171·5 -2·576)/-11 = -297/-11 = 27
72 suits and 27 gowns can be made from available zippers and buttons.
The sides could be 1,14 or 2,7
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To find the unit rate divide 27 1/5 by 4/5
but first
Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

so

Answer:
(2,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to a linear set of equations is the (x,y) point that satisfies both equations.
When you graph the equations, like in this picture, that means the intersection of the two lines.
