2x + 5y = 34

x+2y = 14


Multiply the second equation by two to create like terms for one variable.

2(x+2y = 14)

2x + 4y = 28


2x + 5y = 34

2x + 4y = 28 -- Subtract.


y = 34.28 = 6


Solve for x


x + 2(6) = 14

x + 12 = 14

x = 2


Check:

2 + 2(6) = 14

2 + 12 = 14

14 = 14


Answer:

X = 2

Y = 6

Gelneren [198K]
The sales person receives a $200 sales commission. To get the answer, you would convert the percentage to a decimal, in this case... 2.5%, would become 0.025. You would then multiply 0.025•8000 to get your answer of $200. Which means in total, the salesperson would receive $8200.

If the measure of an angle is twenty less than the measure of its complement, what is the measure of the angle?
velikii [3]
That angle would be 35 degrees. 

Complementary angles equal 90 degrees. So you can create an equation with x as the angle and its complement being x + 20. Set that equal to 90 and solve.

there are 2,300 licensed dogs in clarkson. A random sample of 50 of the dogs in Clarkson shows that 8 have ID microchips implant
algol [13]
Set up a ratio comparing the sample portion to the whole portion.

x= # of all dogs likely to have chip

Sample: 8 out of 50
Whole: x out of 2,300

8/50= x/2300
cross multiply

(50*x)= (8*2300)
50x= 18400

divide both sides by 50
x= 368


ANSWER: 368 dogs in Clarkson are likely to have a microchip.

Hope this helps! :)
