Answer:

b) $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of each CD and y be the cost of each DVD,

Since, 3 CDs and 5 DVDs cost $ 137,

⇒ 3x + 5y = 137 -------(1),

Also, 2 CDS and 7 DVDs cost $ 161,

⇒ 2x + 7y = 161 --------(2),

7 × equation (1) - 5 × equation (2)   ( ∵ we need the value of x so we have to eliminate y for this LCM(7,5) = 35 )

We get,

21x - 10x = 959 - 805

11x = 154

⇒ x = \frac{154}{11} = 14

Hence, the cost of each CD is $ 14,

Option 'b' is correct.

What is the ordered pair or real numbers for which x + y = 99 and x^2 - y^2 = 99.
skad [1K]

Given : x + y = 99 ------------ [1]

Given : x² - y² = 99

We know that : (x² - y²) = (x + y)(x - y)

⇒ (x + y)(x - y) = 99

⇒ 99(x - y) = 99

⇒ x - y = 1 ------------- [2]

Adding Equation [1] and [2], we get :

⇒ (x + y) + (x - y) = 99 + 1

⇒ 2x = 100

⇒ x = 50

Substituting x = 50 in Equation [1], we get :

⇒ 50 + y = 99

⇒ y = 99 - 50

⇒ y = 49

So, The Ordered pair (x , y) = (50 , 49)
