Answer:
Profit = $(700 - 42x - 56y)
Step-by-step explanation:
For large candles, the selling price is $10 and its making cost is $x.
So, by selling a large candle the profit is $(10 - x)
Again for small candles, the selling price is $5 and its making cost is $y.
So, by selling a small candle the profit is $(5 - y)
Therefore, in a sell of 42 large candles and 56 small candles the total profit will be, P = 42 (10 - x) + 56 (5 - y)
⇒ P = 420 - 42x + 280 - 56y {Applying distributive property}
⇒ P = $(700 - 42x - 56y) (Answer)
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract 1 from both sides
Divide both sides of the equation by -10
Answer:
While the average real estate agent commission hovers around 5% to 6%, depending on where you live, the total cost of selling tends to be higher.
Answer: First option.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for "h" from the given the equation 
, you need to:
Apply the Subtraction property of equality and subtract 
to both sides of the equation.
Then you need to apply the Division property of equality and divide both sides of the equation by 
.
Then:
Mult. the 2nd eqn by 6 and then add this "new" equation to the 1st given eqn:
-6x + y = -2
6x -18y = 54
--------------------
-17y = 52, or y = -52/17. Subst. this value of y into either equation to find the value of x.
