Answer:

One family made $1,154 and the other family made $486.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "f" the amount of money (in dollars) one of the families made at the garage sale and "s" the amount of money (in dollars) the second family made at the garage sale.

Set up a system of equations:

\left \{ {{f+s=1,640} \atop {f=2s+182}} \right.

You need to use the Substitution Method to solve this system of equations:

1. Substitute the second equation into the first equation.

2. Solve for "s".

Then:

2s+182+s=1,640\\\\3s=1,458\\\\s=\frac{1,458}{3}\\\\s=486

3. Substitute the value of "s" into the second equation and then evaluate in order to find the value of "f". This is:

f=2(486)+182\\\\f=1,154

Which of the following equations have no solutions?
azamat

Answer:

A, B & D

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if you subtract one of the constants from both sides then you should only have equal variables. In other words, both sides have to be identical in this situation.

33x-33= 33x + 25

33x = 33x + 58 No matter what you make x, the right will be 58 bigger than the right so there is no solution.

33x+33=33x+25

33x+8= 33x nope no solution

33x+25=33x+25

33x = 33x both sides identical so there is a solution

33x-25 = 33x +25

33x= 33x+50
