Use substitution
3x = 2(-6x + 18) + 14
3x = -12x + 36 + 14
3x = -12x + 50
15x = 50, x = 50/15 = 10/3
Solution: x = 10/3
Let L represent lower level tickets and U upper level.
Starter equations:
L + U = 2368
78L + 59U = 157800
Solve simultaneous equations:
59L + 59U = 139712
so 19L = 18088
L = 952
U = 2368 - 952 = 1416
952 lower level tickets and 1416 upper level tickets were sold.
Think it would be true although I don’t know what the transistive property is.
Hope this helps!
No, 56 is a multiple of 7 though.
Answer:
The answer is D
(x=3, y=8)
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to reduce as many variable as we can so, we can obtain the value for the remaining variables.
Therefore, the first equation y=x+5 multiply it -2., you have -2y=-2x-10 and sum it to the second (2y-x=13), you will obtain the following: -x=13-2x-10.
You have x=3.
If you substitute x=3 in the first equation, you have y=8
