Answer:
x=-4, y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the first equation, y = -4x - 9, so we can substitute y in the second equation for -4x - 9.
y = 3x + 19
-4x - 9 = 3x + 19
Add 9 to both sides
-4x = 3x + 28
Subtract 3x
-7x = 28
Divide by -7
x = -4
Plugging this into the equation, we have:
y = -4x - 9
y = -4(-4) - 9
y = 16 - 9
y = 7
The answer is y=-3

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We first have to write an expression for each of the types of coins in terms of one of them. If he has 8 more dimes than nickels, let's call nickels "x". That means that dimes is "x + 8". The value of a nickel is .05, so the expression relating the number of nickels to the worth of the nickel is .05x. The value of a dime is .10, so the expression relating the number of dimes to the worth of the dime is .10(x + 8). The total value of these coins is 1.70:
.05x + .10(x + 8) = 1.70 and
.05x + .10x + .8 = 1.70 and
.15x = .9 so
x = 6
That means we have 6 nickels and 14 dimes.
