Answer:
x = 7.535 and y = 0.307
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Two equations,
2x + 3y = 8 ...(1)
x – 5y = 6....(2)
Multiply equation (2) by -2.
-2x + 10y = -12....(3)
Now, adding equations (1) and (2),
2x + 3y -2x + 10y = 8-12
13y = 4
y = 0.307
Put the value of y in equation (2).
x – 5(0.307) = 6
x = 6 + 1.535
x = 7.535
So, the solutions of the given equation are x = 7.535 and y = 0.307.
The student wrote the wrong operation. "The sum of 5y and 3" translates to 5y+3. And here means addition.
No not rational because you cant divide it
The x values decrease by 12 and the y increase by 4.
Answer: (x-12, y+4)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
step a system of two equations c = child ticket a = adult ticket
eq 1) 2c + 1a = 8.2 multiply by 2
eq 2) 3c + 2a = 14.1
I will multiply eq 1 times TWO and subtract eq 2 from eq 1a)
eq 1a) 4c + 2a = 16.4
eq 2) 3c + 2a = 14.1
subtract (4c - 3c) + (2a -2a) = 16.4 - 14.1
c + 0 = 2.3 euros for one child ticket
Now find the adult ticket price, plug 2.3 for c into eq 1)
eq 1) 2c + 1a = 8.2
eq 1) 2(2.3) + 1a = 8.2 solve for a
4.6 + a = 8.2 substract 4.6 from both sides
a = 8.2 - 4.6
= 3.6 euros for one adult ticket
double check using eq 2) we know c and a values
eq 2) 3c + 2a = 14.1
eq 2) 3(2.3) + 2(3.6) = 14.1
6.9 + 7.2 = 14.1
14.1 = 14.1
