<h3>Answer:</h3>

8x = 12

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Subtracting the first equation from the second, you get ...

... (5x +2y) -(3x +2y) = (7) -(5)

... 2x = 2 . . . . . the first answer choice is true

___

Multiplying this expression for x by 4, we get

... 8x = 8 . . . . . the second answer choice (8x=12) is false

___

Adding thee first equation to the second, you get ...

... (3x +2y) +(5x +2y) = (5) +(7)

... 8x +4y = 12

... 8 + 4y = 12 . . . . . . use the value of 8x just computed

... 4y = 4 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 8; the third answer choice is true

_____

<em>Alternate approaches</em>

In short, if you solve the system by any of the methods available, you find x=1 and y=1, so the second answer choice is clearly the correct one:

... 8x ≠ 12

By Cramer's method:

... x = (2·7-2·5)/(2·5-2·3) = 4/4 = 1

... y = (5·5-7·3)/4 = 4/4 = 1

By graphing, see attached.

By substitution (for 2y):

... 5x +(5-3x) =7 . . . . . using 2y=5-3x

... 2x = 2 . . . . . . subtract 5

... x = 1 . . . . . . . .divide by 2

... 5 -3·1 = 2y = 2 . . . . substitute x into the expression for 2y

... y = 1 . . . . . . . divide by 2

By matrix methods, see the second attachment. (x, y) = (1, 1), found in the rightmost column of the result.

Ali bought 2.152.15 pounds of turkey at $7.89$7.89 per pound, and 1.871.87 pounds of lamb at $7.89$7.89 per pound. Which express
Stella [2.4K]
In order to calculate the total cost of the purchase, we must first assess that there were two items bought, turkey and lamb. Next, we see multiply the cost of the first item by its quantity, so:
cost(T) = 2.15 * 7.89
cost(T) = $16.96
And repeat for the second item:
cost(L) = 1.87 * 7.89
cost (L) = $14.75

Finally, the total cost is the sum of these costs. So
Total = 16.96 + 14.75
Total = $31.71

Can someone help me asap please
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The answer is $19.44

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find 25% of $28.80 (which is 7.20). Then, you subtract the $7.20 from your 28.80. You do that because you are getting a 25% discount. Then, you find 10% of $21.60 (your answer for the 25% discount) and you subtract 10% of $21.60. After that, you get your total of $19.44.

I hope you find this helpful.
