All you have to do is substitute the y value from the 1st equation into the second equation and solve...

a) y= 2-x
5x + 4y = 5

Substitute (2-x) into the second equation anywhere there is a y...

5x + 4y = 5
5x + 4(2-x) = 5

Now solve

5x + 8 - 4x = 5
5x - 4x + 8 = 5
x + 8 = 5
x = -3

Now that you have a solution for x, substitute -3 into either of the original equations anywhere there is an x then solve for y...

y = 2 - x
y = 2 - (-3)
y = 2+3 = 5

You solved for x and got -3 and solved for y and got 5, so your solution set is
(-3, 5).

Now check it by substituting both numbers into one of the original equations and you should have a true statement if it is correct...

y = 2 - x
5 = 2 - (-3)
5 = 2+3
5 = 5

True statement... it checks!


note* during the check, if the equation would have worked out to something like 2 = 5, then that is a false statement therefore the solution set would be wrong and you'd have to go back and find the mistake.

Your cousin gave you $0.72 with which to buy a gift. This covered 9/10 of the cost. How much did the present cost?
Helga [31]

Answer:

$0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

percent times the original number equals the part

(%)(start or total cost)= (part of the total cost). you need to know the total cost, so you would fill in the part and the percent. 0.9x=0.72. you use x because you don't know what the total cost is. then you divide both sides by 0.9 to get x by itself and you get that x = 0.8, meaning that the present costs $0.80.
