Answer: c(x) = $50*x + $24
Step-by-step explanation:
First, this situation can be modeled with a linear equation like:
c(x) = s*x + b
where c is the cost, s is the slope, x is the number of cubic yards of mulch bought, and b is the y-intercept ( a constant that no depends on the number x)
Then we know that:
The company charges $50 per cubic yard, so the slope is $50
A delivery charge of $24, this delivery charge does not depend on x, so this is the y-intercept.
Then our equation is:
c(x) = $50*x + $24
This is:
"The cost of buying x cubic yards of mulch"
3x + 2y = 10 .....multiply by -2
2x + 3y = 15/2...multiply by 3
------------------
-6x - 4y = -20 (result of multiplying by -2)
6x + 9y = 22.5 (result of multiplying by 3)
-----------------add
5y = 2.5
y = 2.5/5
y = 1/2
3x + 2y = 10
3x + 2(1/2) = 10
3x + 1 = 10
3x = 10 - 1
3x = 9
x = 9/3
x = 3
solution is (3,-1/2)
