4x-3y=17......(1)
5x+4y=60......(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 4 and equation (2) by 3:-

16x - 12y = 68
15x + 12y = 180

Adding these 2 equations:_

31x = 248
x = 248/31 = 8

Now substitute x = 8 in equation (1):-

4(8) - 3y = 17
32-3y = 17
-3y = -15
y = -15/-3 = 5

So solution is x=8,y=5

kenzie bought a shirt for $18. the next day she saw the shirt was selling for 24.60. what is the percent increase
Luba_88 [7]
You are trying to solve what percent of the difference between $26.60 and $18 is of $24.60, so:

$24.60 - $18 = $6.60

24.60x = $6.60
x = 6.60/24.60
x = 0.2683

So the percent increase is 26.83%
