Answer:
y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides marked with the same marking are congruent, so we have two equations:
Adding the equations gives ...
5x = 25
x = 5 . . . . . . divide by 5
Then the second equation tells us ...
y = 9 -2x = 9 -2(5) = -1
The value of y is -1.

Answer:
The price of hot dog is $2.5 and that of a pretzel is $1.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of hotdogs be x and that of pretzels be x.
So,
4x+3y = 13.75 ...(1)
and
2x+5y = 11.25 ...(2)
Multiply equation (2) by 2.
4x+10y = 22.5 ...(3)
Subtract equation (1) from (3).
4x+10y-(4x+3y) = 22.5-13.75
4x+10y-4x-3y = 8.75
7y = 8.75
y = 1.25
Put the value of y in equation (1).
4x+3(1.25) = 13.75
4x+3.75 = 13.75
4x = 13.75-3.75
4x = 10
x = 2.5
So, the price of hot dog is $2.5 and that of a pretzel is $1.25.
Answer:
- (3, 5), (1, 2) and (5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Make three systems with pairs of lines and solve them to work out the vertices.
1) <u>Line 1 and line 2</u>
<u>Double the second equation and subtract equations:</u>
- -3x + 2y - 2(2x + y) = 1 - 2(11)
- -3x - 4x = 1 - 22
- -7x = - 21
- x = 3
<u>Find y:</u>
- 2*3 + y = 11
- 6 + y = 11
- y = 11 - 6
- y = 5
The point is (3, 5)
2) <u>Line 1 and line 3</u>
<u>Triple the second equation and add up equations:</u>
- -3x + 2y + 3(x + 4y) = 1 + 3(9)
- 2y + 12y = 1 + 27
- 14y = 28
- y = 2
<u>Find x:</u>
- x + 4*2 = 9
- x + 8 = 9
- x = 1
The point is (1, 2)
3) <u>Line 2 and line 3</u>
<u>Double the second equation and subtract the equations:</u>
- 2x + y - 2(x + 4y) = 11 - 2(9)
- y - 8y = 11 - 18
- - 7y = - 7
- y = 1
<u>Find x:</u>
- x + 4*1 = 9
- x + 4 = 9
- x = 5
The point is (5, 1)
Answer:
- The correct equation is 6s = 7.80
- The solution of the equation is s = $1.30
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the product of 6 and a number, first we denote the unknown number as s.
The product of 6 and s is the same as 6s.
If the product of both numbers is $7.80, then 6s = $7.80
The correct equation is therefore 6s = $7.80
To get the value of s, we will divide both sides by 6 to have:
6s/6 = $7.80/6
s = $1.30
Based on the calculation, the following statements are true
- The correct equation is 6s = 7.80
- The solution of the equation is s = $1.30
