Answer: 5 outfits
Step-by-step explanation: 17.63x2=35.26
437.63+35.26+18.11=491
680-491=189
189 divided by 35.19= 5 (rounded)
Our system of equations is:
y = -3x + 9
y = -x - 5
To solve this system of equations, we are going to use substitution. This means that we are going to substitute the second equation into the first equation since both are already solved for y in terms of x.
y = -3x + 9
-x - 5 = -3x + 9
Now, we must simplify by moving all of the constant terms to one side of the equation and all of the variable terms to the other side.
-x - 5 = -3x + 9
2x - 5 = 9
2x = 14
Finally, to undo the multiplication between the coefficient 2 and the variable x, we must divide both sides by 2 to get the variable x alone.
x = 7
Next, we must substitute in this value we have solved for x into one of the original equations to solve for the other variable, y.
y = -3x + 9
y = -3(7) + 9
To simplify, we must multiply through the parentheses and combine like terms by addition.
y = -21 + 9
y = -12
Therefore, your final answer is x = 7 and y = -12, or as an ordered pair (7, -12).
Hope this helps!
Answer:
It depends on where point D is placed so C > 0
Step-by-step explanation:
As i said above
Equation 1) -x - y - z = -8
Equation 2) -4x + 4y + 5z = 7
Equation 3) 2x + 2z = 4
Solving for three variables is quite similar to solving for two variables. Just like when solving for two variables, you look for like variables & solve them one-by-one. So, let's get started! :)
Multiply ALL of equation 1 by four.
1) 4(-x - y - z = -8)
Simplify.
1) -4x - 4y - 4z = -32
Both equations 1 & 2 have the same three variables (x, y, z), so, we must look at these equations together.
1) -4x - 4y - 4z = -32
2) -4x + 4y + 5z = 7
Add these equations together, and create a fourth equation.
4) -8x - z = -25
Now, notice how both equations 3 & 4 have the same two variables (x, z).
So, we must look at these equations together.
3) 2x + 2z = 4
4) -8x - z = -25
Multiply ALL of equation 4 by 2.
4) 2(-8x - z = -25)
Simplify.
4) -16x - 2z =-50
3) 2x + 2z = 4
Now, add the equations together, so that we can solve for x.
-14x = -42
Divide both sides by -14.
x = 3
Now, plug in 3 for x into our 3rd equation.
3) 2x + 2z = 4
3) 2(3) + 2z = 4
Simplify.
6 + 2z = 4
Subtract 6 from both sides.
2z = 4 - 6
Simplify.
2z = -2
Divide both sides by 2.
z = -1
Now, plug in -1 for z & 3 for x in our 1st equation.
1) -x - y - z = -8
-(3) - y - (-1) = -8
Simplify.
-3 - y + 1 = -8
Simplify.
-2 - y = -8
Add 2 to both sides.
-y = -8 + 2
Simplify.
-y = -6
Divide both sides by -1.
y = 6
SO :
x = 3, y = 6, z = -1
