-102.174. Just plugged into a calculator
Number of parts of the drinks = 31+1 = 6
In a 30 quart mixture:-
amount of orange juice = 3/6 + 30 = 15 qrts
.... ... ... pineapple = 2/6 * 30 = 10 qrts
.... ......... ginger ale = 1/6 * 30 = 5 qrts
Answer:
(5, 3 ) and (- 
, - 10 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - y = 7 → (1)
xy = 15 → (2)
Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x , that is
y = 2x - 7 → (3)
Substitute y = 2x - 7 into (2)
x(2x - 7) = 15
2x² - 7x = 15 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
2x² - 7x - 15 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 5)(2x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5
2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = -
Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y
x = 5 : y = 2(5) - 7 = 10 - 7 = 3 ⇒ (5, 3 )
x = - : y = 2(- ) - 7 = - 3 - 7 = - 10 ⇒ (- , - 10 )
-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20
multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.
(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20
Now we have:
-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14
Divide -2 on both sides.
-2x = -14
/-2 /-2
x = -7.
=============================================
To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20
4x + 2y = 20
4(-7) + 2y = 20
-28 + 2y = 20
Add 28 on both sides
-28 + 2y = 20
+28 +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2 /2
y = 24.
The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.
You may have to do this by yourself :P
