So first, you have to get two of the same variables to cancel out. Let's do this for x. In order for the x's to cancel out, we could multiply the bottom problem by 2.
(2) 3x-6y=24
After multiplying all the numbers by 2, you get the equation 6x-12y=48
The set of equations is now
-6x+2y=12
6x-12y=48
Now you can add them. The x variables cancel out, so you are left with the y variable.
2y+-12y=-10y and 12+48=60
Then you would divide 60 by -10 to get y=-6.
You would plug the answer for y into one of the original equations, lets do the top one. -6x+2y=12 becomes -6x+2(-6)=12
You'd multiply the 2 and -6 to get -12 so the equation is
-6x-12=12
The negative 12 turn positive and you add to both sides to get the -6x alone.
-6x-12=12
+12=12
-6x=24
Then divide 24 by -6
X=4

(-4,-6) is your final answer.

A school lunch costs $2.50. A monthly lunch pass costs $40.00. Which inequality represents the number x of lunches you must purc
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The inequality 2.50x>40.00 represents the number of lunches needed to be purchased for the monthly lunch pass to be a better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of each lunch = $2.50

Cost of monthly lunch pass = $40.00

Number of lunches = x

For making the monthly pass a better deal, the cost of lunches should be greater than the cost of monthly lunches, therefore

Cost of lunch * Number of lunches > Cost of monthly lunch pass

2.50x > 40.00

Hence,

The inequality 2.50x>40.00 represents the number of lunches needed to be purchased for the monthly lunch pass to be a better deal.

Need help with this :(
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

B.    m = \frac{3}{2}, y-int = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the line, we need to plot two points

(2, 6) (-2, 0)

m = slope

Then use the Slope-Formula to Solve for the slope

m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}        

m = \frac{0-6}{-2-2}

m = \frac{-6}{-4}

m = \frac{6}{4}

m = \frac{3}{2}

The Slope is \frac{3}{2}

The y-intercept is 3 because the line is going 3 units upwards on y axis!

Equation: y = 3/2x + 3

Slope: 3/2

y-intercept: 3
