Answer:

(3,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 5 = x

4x - y = 4

Since y-5 = x, substitute y-5 in place of x in the second equation:

4x- y = 4

4(y-5) - y = 4

4y - 4*5 - y = 4

3y - 20 = 4

3y = 24

y =8

Solve for x:

y - 5 = x

8-5 = x

3 = x

Check:

4x - y = 4

4(3) - 8 = 4

12 - 8 = 4

4 = 4

Check

y - 5 = x

8 - 5 = 3

3 = 3

Check!

y - 5 = x

4x - y = 4

Arrange:

y - 5 = x

-x + y = 5

-x + y = 5

4x - y = 4

Add together:

-x + y = 5

4x - y = 4

3x = 9

Solve for x:

x = 9 ÷ 3

x = 3

Substitute and solve y:

y - 5 = x

y - 5 = 3

y = 3 + 5

y = 8

x = 3

y = 8

Answer:

81000 people went to Bonnaroo.

192000 people went to Lollapalooza.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of people attending festivals, $N=273000$

Number of people attending Lollapalooza is 30,000 more than twice the people attending Bonnaroo.

Unknown:

Number of people attending Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo.

Let the number of people attending Bonnaroo be $x$ .

Therefore, the number of people attending Lollapalooza is equal to $30000+2x$

Evaluate:

Sum of people attending Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza is equal to the total number of people attending the festivals. So,

$x+30000+2x=N\\3x+30000=273000\\3x=273000-30000\\3x=243000\\x=\frac{243000}{3}=81000$

Substitute and Solve:

Now, we have, $x=81000$ .

Substitute 81000 for $x$ and solve for the number of people attending both the festivals. This gives,

Number of people attending Bonnaroo = $x=81000$

Number of people attending Lollapalooza = $30000+2x=30000+2(81000)=30000+162000=192000$

Therefore, 81000 people went to Bonnaroo and 192000 people went to Lollapalooza.
