Answer:
There is one possible solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to get the number of solutions
We can proceed to solve the equation
we have two y values so we can directly equate the x parts
-2x - 4 = 3x + 3
3x + 2x = -3-4
5x = -7
x = -7/5
To get y, we substitute
We can only get one value of y too
So we have a point (x,y) as the solution to the system of equations
87. Juanita started with 40 dollars in her pocket.
Then she bought one CD for 7.99 dollars and 1 DVD for 8.99 dollars.
It has a sales tax of 7% on these items.
Plus she bought a lunch for 4.25 dollars including tax
Solve:
=> 7.99 dollars + 8.99 dollars = 16.98 dollars
=> 16.98 dollars * .07 = 1.2 dollars
=> 16.98 + 1.2 = 18.18 dollars
Plus the lunch
=> 18.18 + 4.25 = 22.43 dollars
=> 40 – 22.43 = 17.57 dollars
Let us cross multiply.
5/9=10/x
9 x 10= 5x
90=5x
90 <u />÷ 5= 5x <span>÷ 5
18=x
So, the answer is 18. I hope this helped you, since I just learned cross multiplication last week.</span>
