Answer:
30 small chairs and 24 large chairs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the numbers of small chairs and large chairs built in a day. Then the relations for using available time are ...
20x +50y = 30×60
60x +90y = 66×60
Removing common factors, these can be written in standard form as ...
2x +5y = 180
2x +3y = 132
Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...
2y = 48
y = 24 . . . . . divide by 2
Using the first equation to find x, we have ...
2x +5(24) = 180
2x = 60 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 120
x = 30 . . . . . . . . divide by 2
The company can build 30 small chairs and 24 large chairs in a day.
Answer: The solution is (3, -2)
This means that x = 3 and y = -2 pair up together.
=====================================================
Explanation:
The solution is where the two lines cross. Note if we started at the origin (0,0) and moved to the right 3 units, and then down 2 units, we would arrive at the location (3, -2).
-----------------
As a way to check, we can plug x = 3 into each equation. We should get y = -2 as a result for each equation
y = (-5/3)x + 3
y = (-5/3)*3 + 3
y = -5+3
y = -2
The first equation is confirmed. Let's check the second equation
y = (1/3)x - 3
y = (1/3)*3 - 3
y = 1 - 3
y = -2
Both equations have the y value equal -2 when x = 3. Therefore, the overall solution is confirmed.

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello
Match the points on the number line with the rational numbers.
a __ -6/8 = -(2 x 3)/(2 x 4) = -3/4
b __ -2/8 = -2/(2 x 4) = -1/4
c __ -4/8 = -4/(4 x 2) = -1/2
d __ 8/8 = 1
e __ 13/8
