I think i is your answer since that is the lowest price
Slimination
multiply first equaiton by 2
2x+6y=10
add to second equiaotn
2x-2x+6y-6y=10-10
0=0
this is true so therfor they are the same equaiton
so solve
x+3y=5
3y=-x+5
y=-1/3x+5/3
subsituter values for x and get valuse for y
if x=2 then y=1
I think it would be 4.
8 breaks down to 4(2) and 12 breaks down to 4(3). Let me know if that helps!
Answer:
her first mistake was on line 3.
line 1: 80 + [2(3 1/2 + 1 1/2)]
line 2: 80 + [2(5)]
line 3: 80 + 10
line 4: 90
Step-by-step explanation:
on line 3 she added 80 + 2, but she should have multiplied 2 by 5. the correct steps would be:
line 1: 80 + [2(3 1/2 + 1 1/2)]
line 2: 80 + [2(5)]
line 3: 80 + 10
line 4: 90
Each container is 50 pounds, forget about the second sentence it's just there to confuse you. One ton is 2,000 pounds, half of that is 1,000 lbs. 1,000 divided by 20 is 50. 50 pounds each.
