The 2 equations are 
-2x + y = -17 ---1)
3x + y = 23 ---2)
we need to have the same coefficient for one of the variables.
Already y variable has the coefficient of 1 for both equations so we can use the equations  as it is. 
2) - 1) subtract 1) from 2)
3x-(-2x) + y -y = 23-(-17)
5x = 40
x = 8
substituting x = 8 in the 2nd equation 
3*8 + y = 23
24 + y = 23
y = -1

solution - (8,-1)

dangina [55]

Given:

She purchased adult ticket for herself and children tickets for her 2 boys.

Cost of one adult ticket = $39.99

Cost of one child ticket = $19.99

To find:

The expression to represent the total cost of the tickets Jenny purchased.

Solution:

Let x represent the number of adult ticket purchase

and y represent the number of child tickets purchase.

Cost of one adult ticket = $39.99

Cost of one child ticket = $19.99

Total cost = 39.99x + 19.99y

Therefore, the expression for total cost is 39.99x + 19.99y.

She purchased one adult ticket and 2 child tickets.

Substitute x=1 and y=2 in the above expression.

Total cost = 39.99(1) + 19.99(2)

               = 39.99 + 39.98

               = 79.97

Therefore, the required expression to represent the total cost of the tickets Jenny purchased is 39.99(1) + 19.99(2) and total cost is $79.97.
