Answer:

Part a) The solution is the ordered pair (6,10)

Part b) The solutions are the ordered pairs (7,3) and (15,1.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) we have

\frac{x}{2}-\frac{y}{5}=1 ----> equation A

y-\frac{x}{3}=8 ----> equation B

Multiply equation A by 10 both sides to remove the fractions

5x-2y=10 ----> equation C

isolate the variable y in equation B

y=\frac{x}{3}+8 ----> equation D

we have the system of equations

5x-2y=10 ----> equation C

y=\frac{x}{3}+8 ----> equation D

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation D in equation C

5x-2(\frac{x}{3}+8)=10

solve for x

5x-\frac{2x}{3}-16=10

Multiply by 3 both sides

15x-2x-48=30

15x-2x=48+30

Combine like terms

13x=78

x=6

<em>Find the value of y</em>

y=\frac{x}{3}+8

y=\frac{6}{3}+8

y=10

The solution is the ordered pair (6,10)

Part b) we have

xy=21 ---> equation A

x+5y=22 ----> equation B

isolate the variable x in the equation B

x=22-5y ----> equation C

substitute equation C in equation A

(22-5y)y=21

solve for y

22y-5y^2=21

5y^2-22y+21=0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The solutions are y=1.4, y=3

see the attached figure

<em>Find the values of x</em>

For y=1.4

x=22-5(1.4)=15

For y=3

x=22-5(3)=7

therefore

The solutions are the ordered pairs (7,3) and (15,1.4)

rosijanka [135]
<h2>Answer:37 paintings of $50 and 15 paintings of $75</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of paintings Ella sells for $50.

Let y be the number of paintings Ella sells for $75.

Profit made through $50 paintings is 50x

Profit made through $75 paintings is 75y

So,total profit is given by 50x+75y

It is given that total profit is $2975

So,50x+75y=2975      ..(i)

Given that the total number of prints is 52

So,x+y=52      ..(ii)

using (i) and (ii),

50x+75(52-x)=2975\\50x+3900-75x=2975\\25x=925\\x=37

y=52-x=52-37=15
