Answer:

Cost of each hat: $5

Cost of each mask: $3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the cost in dollars of a party hat and "y" the cost in dollars of a mask.

Set up a System of equations using the information given in the exercise:

\left \{ {{3x+4y=27} \atop {3x+6y=33}} \right.

You can use the Elimination Method to solve this System of equations:

1. You can multiply the first equation by -1.

2. Then you must add the equations.

3. Solve for "y".

Then:

\left \{ {{-3x-4y=-27} \atop {3x+6y=33}} \right.\\.....................\\2y=6\\\\y=\frac{6}{2}\\\\y=3

4. Now you can substitute the value of "y" into any original equation.

5. Finally, solve for "x" in order to find its value.

Then:

 3x+4(3)=27\\\\3x=27-12\\\\x=\frac{15}{3}\\\\x=5

What is the solution of this system of linear equations? 3y = 3 y equals StartFraction 3 over 2 EndFraction x plus 6.X + 6 y – S
Scrat [10]

Answer:

(0,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

y =  \frac{3}{2}x + 6

and

\frac{1}{2}y -  \frac{1}{4}x = 3

We substitute the first equation into the second equation to get:

\frac{1}{2} ( \frac{3}{2}x + 6) -  \frac{1}{4}x = 3

We expand to get:

\frac{3}{4} x + 3 -  \frac{1}{4}x = 3

We group similar terms to get:

\frac{3}{4}x -  \frac{1}{4}x = 3 - 3

\frac{1}{2}x = 0

x = 0

Put x=0 in to the first equation to get:

y = 6

Therefore the solution is (0,6)
