4y - x = 5 + 2y ..... (1)
3x + 7y = 24    ..... (2)

by grouping like terms in (1)
4y - x = 5 + 2y
4y - 2y - x = 5
<span>-x + 2y = 5 </span>        ..... (1a)

by multiplying (1a) through by -3
(-3)(-x) + 2(-3)y = 5(-3)
3x  -  6y = -15  ..... (1b)

by subtracting 1a from 2
3x -3x + 7y - (-6y) = 24 - (-15)
                      13y = 39
           ⇒            y = 3

by substituting y=3 into (2)
    3x + 7(3) = 24 
              3x = 24 - 21
              3x = 3
        ⇒     x = 1


∴ solution to the system is x=1 when y = 3

Sydney purchases a new car for $27,500. The value of the car decreases at rate of 15% each year. In approximately will the $1,25
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Time taken n = 19 years (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of car P = $27,500

Decrease rate r = 15% = 0.15

Final amount A = $1,254

Find:

Time taken n

Computation:

A = P[1-r]ⁿ

1,254 = 27,500[1-0.15]ⁿ

0.0456 = [0.85]ⁿ

Time taken n = 19 years (Approx)

The cost for an order of 100 kilograms of steel bars is $230. The cost for an order of 150 kilograms of steel bars is $320. Writ
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

y = 9x/5 + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are represent the information as coordinate (x,y)

If the cost for an order of 100 kilograms of steel bars is $230, this is expressed as (100, 230)

Also if the cost for an order of 150 kilograms of steel bars is $320, this is expressed as;

(150, 320)

Find the equation of a line passing through the points. The standard form of the equation is expressed as y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Get the slope;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 320-230/150-100

m = 90/50

m = 9/5

Get the y-intercept by substituting m = 9/5 and any point say (100, 230) into the expression y = mx+c

230 = 9/5(100)+c

230 = 9(20)+c

230 = 180 + c

c = 230-180

c = 50

Get the required equation

y = mx+c

y = 9/5 x + 50

Hence an equation for the cost of an order of steel bars (y) in terms of the weight of steel bars ordered (x) is y = 9x/5 + 50

A rental car agency charges $220.00 per week plus 50.15 per mile to rent a car. How many miles can you travel in one week for $3
babymother [125]

Answer:2.81

Step-by-step explanation:

First you subtract the per week (220) from your budget (361)

You get 141

You now divide 141 by 50.15

You come out to 2.81

This means you can drive up to 2.81 miles but no more
