Answer:
math is torture
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 11/3 = 3 2/3
y = 13/3 = 4 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve the system of equations simultaneously
x + y = 8
2x -3 = y
From the second equation, we have an equation for y
we can simply proceed to substitute this into the first equation
x + 2x - 3 = 8
3x - 3 = 8
3x = 8 + 3
3x = 11
x = 11/3
Recall;
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(11/3) - 3
y = 22/3 - 3
y = (22-3(3))/3
y = (22-9)/3 = 13/3
2c + b = 37 ....multiply by -3
4c + 3b = 81
------------------
-6c - 3b = - 111 (result of multiplying by -3)
4c + 3b = 81
------------------add
-2c = - 30
c = -30/-2
c = 15 <== $ 15 for a can of paint
and it costs $ 7 for each brush
