Answer:

(-2, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

–2x + 2y = -4

3х + Зу = -18

Divide the first equation by 2

–2x/2 + 2y/2 = -4/2

-x +y = -2

Divide the second equation by 3

3х/3 + Зу/3 = -18/3

x + y = -6

Add these equation together

-x +y = -2

x + y = -6

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

0x + 2y = -8

2y = -8

Divide each side by 2

2y/2 = -8/2

y = -4

Now we need x

x+y = -6

x-4 = -6

Add 4 to each side

x-4+4 = -6+4

x = -2

At a restaurant you only have 20 dollars to spend on dinner. in addition to the cost of the meal you must pay only 5% sales tax

aev [14]

Alright so to do this you need some basic algebra
you have to pay an extra 20% of whatever you buy
thus we can make the following equation
.2x+x=20 (since 20 is the amount of money you have)
combining the like terms,
1.2x=20
and finally, dividing both sides by 1.2
x=$16.67
don't forget to check!
.05*16.67=.83 (sales tax makes the total $17.5)
.15*16.67=2.5 (tip makes the total $20)
whaddya you know, it works!
most expensive item you can buy will cost $16.67
hope this helped!

Suppose a friend is having difficulty solving -2(q-5) > -3(q+1). Explain how to solve the inequality, showing all the necessa

IgorC [24]

Firstly, use the distributive property of multiplication (A(B + C) = A×B + A×C) on -2(q - 5) and -3(q + 1): $-2q+10>-3q-3$

Next, apply the addition property of equality (whatever you add to one side you have to add the same quantity to the other), and add 3q on both sides: $q+10>-3$

Lastly, apply the subtraction property of equality (whatever you subtract on one side you have to subtract the same amount on the other side), and subtract 10 on both sides. Your final answer will be $q>-13$
