#15(A)
First Bike
$380 - $190 ($380 * 0.50) = $190
2nd Bike
$380 - $114 ( $380 * 0.30) = $266
$266 - $53.20 ($266 * 0.20) = $212.80
#15 (B)
Eliza should buy the first bike because it is cheaper. $190 < $212.80
#16
$57 + $28.50 ($57 * .50) = $85.50
D. Nine hundred fifty-for thousandths
<span>-3x + 2y = 2 eq (1)
7x - 3y = 7 eq (2)
Mutiply eq (1) by 3 and eq (2) by 2:
-9x + 6y = 6
14x - 6y = 14
Add th two new equations:
-9x + 14x = 6 + 14
=> 5x = 20
=> x = 20/5
=> x = 4
Now from eq (1)
-3(4) + 2y = 2
=> 2y = 2 + 12
=> 2y = 14
=> y = 14 / 2
=> y = 7
So the ordered pair is (4,7)
Answer: option B. (4,7)
