3x=16+4y\\\\
x=\frac{16+4y}{3}=\frac{16+4*(-1)}{3}=\frac{12}{3}=4\\\\ \left \{ {{y=-1} \atop {x=4}} \right.

Okay for this one, i will start with x

3x - 4y = 16
5x + 6y = 14

I will multiply the top row with (-5) and the bottom with (3) 
so the new equation is

-15x + 20y = -80
15x + 18y = 42

After canceling (x) the new equation will be

38y = -38

Divide by 38

And you will get -1

Now substitute (-1) to (y)  to the old equation ( any of the old equation)
3x- 4(-1)= 16
x = 4

answers ( 4, -1)

William works at a nearby electronics store. He makes a commission of 6% percent on everything he sells. If he sells a computer
Naddika [18.5K]

Commission earned by William is $ 45.84

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that,

William makes a commission of 6% percent on everything he sells

He sells a computer for $764.00

<em><u>To find: Commission amount of William</u></em>

Given that he makes a commission of 6 % on everything he sells. So he has received a commission of 6 % of $ 764.00

Commission amount of William = 6 % of $ 764.00

a % of b can be written in fraction as \frac{a}{100} \times b

6 \% \text { of } 764=\frac{6}{100} \times 764=0.06 \times 764=45.84

Thus commission earned by William is $ 45.84
