Answer:

12 bolt 18 nuts

Step-by-step explanation: (Elimination method)

N=nuts

B=bolts

B + N = 30

0.20B + 0.10N = 4.20

20B+10N=420 (I multiplied by 10 to eliminate decimals

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

I  will multiply the first  by (-10)

-10B  -10N =-300

20N +10N=420

10B+0 = 120

B=12 (12 BOLT)

30-12 =18   (8 NUTS)

12*0.20=2.40

18*0.10=1.80

2.40+ 1.80 = 4.20

Solve each system by elimination.<br> 1) 10x + 7y=9 -4x - 7y=9
stellarik [79]

Answer:

(3, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When asked to solve by elimination, you put them on top of one another, like you're going to add it.

10x + 7y = 9

-4x - 7y = 9

See that 7y? You can cancel those out because one is negative, and one is positive. So those are gone. You finish adding the rest of the numbers as usual and solve for x.

6x = 18

x = 3

Take x, and plug it into either equation to find y.

10(3) + 7y = 9

7y = -21

y = -3

(3, -3)

Hope this helped!
