X + y = 152,<br><br> 8.5x + 12y = 1,656<br><br> How many hats were sold?

Elodia [21]

Answer:

x = 48 and y = 104

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are:

$x+y = 152\\8.5x+12y=1656$

From equation 1:

$x = 152-y$

Putting the value of y in equation 2

$8.5(152-y)+12y = 1656\\1292-8.5y+12y = 1656\\3.5y+1292 = 1656\\3.5y = 1656-1292\\3.5y = 364\\\frac{3.5y}{3.5} = \frac{364}{3.5}\\y = 104$

Now we have to put the value of y in one of the equation to find the value of x

Putting y = 104 in the first equation

$x+y = 152\\x+ 104 = 152\\x = 152-104\\x = 48$

Hence,

The solution of the system of equations is x = 48 and y = 104

The value of variable which was assumed for number of hats, is the total number of hats.

Rewrite the equation of the line 5y = -1/4x - 6 in standard form

netineya [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C

Given

5y = - $\frac{1}{4}$ x - 6 ( multiply through by 4 to clear the fraction )

20y = - x - 24 ( add x to both sides )

x + 20y = - 24 → D
