Answer:
x=0, y=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
The system is
(1) 5x+3y=-15
(2) -8x-2y=10
Let's solve it by elimination. In order to do it, you have to multiply the equations by suitable numbers in such a way that when you add the 2 equations, one of the unknowns is eliminated
Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 3
(1) 10x+6y=-30
(2) -24x-6y=30
Add the two equations
10x-24x+6y-6y=-30+30 ----> -14x=0---->x=0
Now replace this value in any equation, for example in (1)
6y=-30 ----> y=-30/6----> y=-5
This one is a bit trickier but I do believe the answer is B. About 30 ft2 to 40ft2. Let me know if you need any more help!!!
Answer:
Brand A = $0.19 per pencil
Brand B = $0.18 per pencil
Better Buy = Brand B (costs less)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find unit price for each, we divide the total with the number of pencils.
So, <u>Brand A:</u>
5.29/28 = $0.19 per pencil
And, <u>Brand B:</u>
8.47/48 = $0.18 per pencil
As we can see, Brand B pencils are around 1 cent less per pencil than Brand A pencils. So, we can say Brand B are a Better Buy.
When at least one of the factors still has a common factor
