Answer:

option D

D. x = 5, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two equation,

Equation 1

5.3x + y = 28.5

Equation 2

4.2x + 3.1y = 27.2

rearrange equation 1 in terms of y

y = 28.5 - 5.3x

Substitute the value of y in equation 2

<h3>4.2x + 3.1(28.5 - 5.3x) = 27.2</h3>

4.2x + 88.35 - 16.43x = 27.2

4.2x - 16.43x = 27.2 - 88.35

-12.23x = -61.15

x = 61.15/12.23

x = 5

put value of x in any of the equation

<h3>5.3(5) + y = 28.5</h3>

y = 28.5 - 26.5

y = 2

the sum of two numbers is 123. when the larger number is added to 5 times the smaller, the sum is 343. find the numbers.​
vovikov84 [41]
Create a system of equations
x + y = 123
5x + y = 343

I use substitution
y = 123 - x
5x + 123 - x = 343
4x + 123 = 343
4x = 220
x = 55

Plug in
x + y = 123
55 + y = 123
y = 68

Check
5x + y = 343
5(55) + 68 = 343
275 + 68 = 343
343 = 343
