How am I supposed to solve this? I know how to do the equations but I don't know why there are only 2 places to put an answer fo

r X and Y when there are 2 equations. Both equations have an X and a Y so that means there are 4 X and Y answers.

Answer:

x = 1

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We will multiply the 2nd equation by 4 first:

4 * [-x + y = -5]

-4x + 4y = -20

Now we will add this equation with 1st equation given. Shown below:

4x + 3y = -8

-4x + 4y = -20

---------------------

7y = -28

Now, we can solve for y easily:

7y = -28

y = -28/7

y = -4

Now, we take this value of y and put it in 1st original equation and solve for x:

4x + 3y = -8

4x + 3(-4) = -8

4x - 12 = -8

4x = -8 + 12

4x = 4

x = 4/4

x = 1

So, this is the only solution to this problem ( 1 intersection point at x = 1 and y = -4)

victus00 [196]

Amount of money received when x tickets are sold=$Y

Number of tickets sold=X

Slope of line= \frac{1}{4}

And , y- intercept = 8

Equation of line having slope m and y-intercept c is given by,

  y = m x + c,

Expressing the above statement in terms of linear equation in two variable i.e a line is

  Y = \frac{1}{4}X + 8
