Subtract 2n
3m = -2n + 7
Divide by 3
Solution: m = -2/3n + 7/3
Answer: y = 25x + 50
Explanation: the total cost if the rental is a linear function of the number of days of the rental (x). Each day costs $25, so that is the slope of the line. Since there is also a one-time fee, independent of the number of days, this amount $50 represents a vertical shift of the line on the graph, by 50. y=25x+50 is an algebraic expression of that.
Answer:
Cost of shrubs = 23
Cost of tree = 47
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Cost of shrubs = x
Cost of tree = y
13x + 4y = 487 (1)
6x + 2y = 232 (2)
Multiply (2) by 2
12x + 4y = 464 (3)
13x + 4y = 487 (1)
Subtract (3) from (1)
13x - 12x = 487 - 464
x = 23
Substitute x = 23 into (2)
6x + 2y = 232 (2)
6(23) + 2y = 232
138 + 2y = 232
2y = 232 - 138
2y = 94
y = 94/2
= 47
y = 47
