Answer:

{x = 1, y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-3 x - 3 y = 12 | (equation 1)

{3 y - 9 x = -24 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{-(9 x) + 3 y = -24 | (equation 1)

{-(3 x) - 3 y = 12 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/3 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{-(9 x) + 3 y = -24 | (equation 1)

0 x - 4 y = 20 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:

{-(3 x) + y = -8 | (equation 1)

{0 x - 4 y = 20 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 4:

{-(3 x) + y = -8 | (equation 1)

{0 x - y = 5 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:

{-(3 x) + y = -8 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = -5 | (equation 2)

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1:

{-(3 x)+0 y = -3 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = -5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by -3:

{x+0 y = 1 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = -5 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer:  {x = 1 , y = -5

gregori [183]

Answer:

Per child admission costs $8.5

Per Adult admission costs $13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of admission per child and y be the amount of admission per adult

For Tom's party:

13x+2y=137.50      (Equation 1)

For Lisa's Party:

9x+2y=105.50       (Equation 2)

Using Elimination Method:

Add Equation 1 & 2

13x+2y=137.50

9x+2y=105.50  

-    -   = -         (Change of Signs)

---------------------------------

4x+0y=34.00      

x=34/4

x=8.5

Putting the value of x in Equation 2

13(8.5)+2y=137.50

110.5+2y=137.50

2y=137.50-110.50

2y=27

y=27/2

y=13.5
