Jason had $32. He spent all the money buying four CDs for x dollars each and two magazines for y dollars each. If Jason had boug

ht five CDs and two magazines, he would have run short by $4. The following system of equations models this scenario:
4x + 2y = 32
5x + 2y = 36

Use the system of equations to solve for x and y.

Answer:

(4,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the two equations:

$ 4x + 2y = 32 \hspace{15mm} .....(1) $ and

$ 5x + 2y = 36 \hspace{15mm}  .....(2) $

Subtracting (1) from (2):

⇒ 5x + 2y -4x - 2y = 36 - 32

⇒                  x = 4

Substituting the value of x in (1), we get:

4(4) + 2y = 32

⇒ 2y = 16

⇒                      y = 8

We write the solution in ordered pair as (x,y) = (4,8).

Who think they can figure out this equation for me
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

b < -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write inequality

-3(6b - 1) > 18 - 3b

Step 2: Solve for <em>b</em>

<u>Distribute -3:</u> -18b + 3 > 18 - 3b

<u>Add 18b to both sides:</u> 3 > 18 + 15b

<u>Subtract 18 on both sides:</u> -15 > 15b

<u>Divide both sides by 15:</u> -1 > b

<u>Rewrite:</u> b < -1

Kevin can travel 22 1/2 miles in 1/3 hour. what is his average speed in miles per hour
klemol [59]
We know that speed * time = distance

Before we start we need to make sure the units for all three numbers are right

The time is 1/3 of a hour, 1/3*60 = 20 minutes

x * 20 = 22.5
 
x *2 * 10 = 22.5

2x = 2.25
 
x = 1.125
