Solve the given system of equations.

8 0

The given equations are:
1) 2y = -x + 9
⇒ x = 9-2y

2) 3x - 6y = -15
⇒3x = 6y - 15
x = 2y - 5

Equating the values of x, we get:

9 - 2y = 2y - 5
9 + 5 = 4y
14 = 4y
y = 3.5

Using this value of y in equation 1 we get:

x = 9 - 2(3.5) = 2

So, the solution set is (2, 3.5)

On Sunday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined of 572 hamburger and cheeseburger. The number of cheeseburgers sold was three

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: 143 hamburgers and 429 cheese burgers

Explanation:

Call h and c the number of both items.
(h-hamburger and c-cheeseburger)

h + c = 572
c = 3h

Sub the second into the first

h + 3h = 572
4h = 572

Divide both sides by 4
h = 143 hamburgers

Use this back into the second equation
c = 3 • 143 = 429 cheeseburgers
