Answer:Teo's age = 7 years ,Richard's age = 19 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Let Teo's age be represented as x
Such that Richard 's age = 5 + 2x
and their combined ages equaling 26 can be expressed as
x + 5+ 2x = 26
Step 2 --- SOLVING
x + 5+ 2x = 26
3x+ 5= 26
3x= 26-5
3x= 21
x = 21/3
x = 7
Teo's age = 7 years
Richard's age = 5+2x= 5 + 14= 19 years
Answer: The cost of one rose bush is $7 and the cost of one shrub is also $7
Step-by-step explanation:
The situtation can be represented by the systems of the equations.
10x + 4y = 98 x in this case is the cost of one rose bushes
9x + 9y = 126 y is the cost of one shrub.
Solve the system of equation using the elimination method.
10x +4y = 98
9x + 9y = 126 eliminate the y variable so you will have to multiply 9 on top and -4 down.
9(10x +4) = (98)(9)
-4(9x + 9y) = 126(-4)
You will now have the new two systems of equations
90x +36y = 882
-36x +-36y = -504 Now add the equations
0 + 54x = 378
54x = 378
x= 7
Now we know that the cost of one rose bush is 7 so we will plot it into one of the equations and solve for the cost of one shrub.
90(7) +36y=882
630 +36y = 882
-630 -630
36y = 252
y = 7
Check: 10(7) + 4(7)= 98
70 + 28 = 98
98= 98
so one rose bush is actually 7 dollars the same as 1 shrub.
Answer:
Multiply the first bracket by 3
Multiply the second bracket by -2
3x+3=-2x+2-4
3x+2x+3=-2x-2 negative (-) number and positive number (+)= negative number
Just rearranging
5x+3=-2
5x+3-3=-2-3
5x=-5
Dividing by 5
5x/5=-5/5
x=-1
Check answer by using substitution method
3(-1+1)=-2(-1-1)-4
0=-2(-2)-4 negative number and negative number = positive number
0=4-4
0=0
Answer is x=-1
Simply subtract 8.72 from 20.08 and you get the answer which is 11.36$
