Answer: x=-1,y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 5y = 26 multiplied by factor of 2 becoming 14x-10y=52

2x+4y= 2 multiplied by factor of 7 becoming 14x+28y=14

now solve by elimination

 14x+28y=14

-(14x-10y=52)

--------------------

38x=-38

x=-1

to find y plug in x to an equation

2(1)+4y= 2

y=0

Answer:

x=3, y=-1. (3, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

7x-5y=26

2x+4y=2

--------------

simplify 2x+4y=2 into x+2y=1

-------------

7x-5y=26

x+2y=1

-----------------

x=1-2y

7(1-2y)-5y=26

7-14y-5y=26

7-19y=26

19y=7-26

19y=-19

y=-19/19

y=-1

x+2(-1)=1

x-2=1

x=1+2

x=3

Answer:

D  8√(10) ^3x

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

sqrt(10) ^ (3/4x)

We can rewrite the sqrt as ^1/2

10 ^ (1/2) ^ (3/4x)

We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

10 ^(1/2 *3/4x)

10 ^(3/8 x)

The numerator is the power

The denominator is the root

8√(10) ^3x

You are running a concession stand at a basketball game. You are selling hotdogs and sodas. Each hotdog cost $1.50 and each soda
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

35 hotdogs

Step-by-step explanation:

You are running a concession stand at a basketball game. You are selling hotdogs and sodas.

Let the number of hot dogs be represented by x

The number of soda be represented by y

You sold a total of 87 hotdogs and sodas combined

x + y = 87

x = 87 - y

Each hotdog cost $1.50 and each soda cost $0.50. At the end of the night you made a total of $78.50.

Hence we have the equation:

$1.50 × x + $0.50 × y = $78.50

1.50x + 0.50y = 78.50

Substitute 87 - y for x

1.50(87 - y) + 0.50y = 78.50

130.5 - 1.50y + 0.50y = 78.50

Collect like terms

- 1.50y + 0.50y = 78.50 - 130.50

-1.00y = -52

y = -52/-1

y = 52 sodas

How many hotdogs did you sell?

Using the equation:

x = 87 - y

x = 87 - 52

x = 35 hotdogs

Hence, you sold 35 hotdogs
