What is the solution to the system of equations?

Mathematics

Jlenok [28]3 years ago

Answer:

The solution would be (-19, 40)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this system by substitution, simply take the value of y in the first equation and use it in place of y in the second. This will allow you to solve for x.

5x + 2y = 15

5x + 2(-3x - 2) = 15

5x - 6x - 4 = 15

-x - 4 = 15

-x = 19

x = -19

Now that we have the value of x, we can find the value of y.

y = -3x - 3

y = -3(-19) - 3

y = 43 - 3

y = 40

The sum of two numbers is 90 and the greater number exceeds twice the smaller by 15. Find the smaller number.
ASHA 777 [7]

Let smaller number is x

Greater number =2x+15

According to the question

Greater number + smaller number =90

2x+15+x=90

3x=75

x=25

And 2x+15=65

Hence, numbers are 25 and 65

The cost to rent a car at one agency is $24.50 per day plus an additional $15.99 fee for insurance. At a different agency, the c
Lena [83]

Answer:

d=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Agency 1:

Total cost of renting a car=24.50d + 15.99

Agency 2:

Total cost of renting a car=27.50d + 3.99

Where, d=No. of days of renting the car

Which equation could be used to find the number of days, d, at which the rental fee is the same for both agencies?

The equation is by equating agency 1 and agency 2 equation

24.50d + 15.99 = 27.50d + 3.99

Collect like terms

24.50d - 27.50d = 3.99 - 15.99

-3d = -12

Divide both sides by -3

d= -12 / -3

=4

d=4

Check

Agency 1:

24.50d + 15.99

= 24.50(4) + 15.99

= 98 + 15.99

= 113.99

Agency 2:

27.50d + 3.99

= 27.50(4) + 3.99

= 110 + 3.99

= 133.99
