Answer: The total cost is $53.13

Step-by-step explanation: The cost of the birthday meal is $46.20 excluding the tip. The tip is 15%. Thus $46.20×15%=$6.93

We have to add this amount to the initial cost $46.20+$6.93= $53.13

I need help 6x-2y=10 x-2y=-5 solve by elimination

dem82 [27]

<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>

Given the system of equations.

$\begin{cases} 6x - 2y = 10 \\ x - 2y = - 5 \end{cases}$

Solve the system of equations by eliminating either x-term or y-term. We will eliminate the y-term as it is faster to solve the equation.

To eliminate the y-term, we have to multiply the negative in either the first or second equation so we can get rid of the y-term. I will multiply negative in the second equation.

$\begin{cases} 6x - 2y = 10 \\ - x + 2y = 5 \end{cases}$

There as we can get rid of the y-term by adding both equations.

$(6x - x) + ( - 2y + 2y) = 10 + 5 \\ 5x + 0 = 15 \\ 5x = 15 \\ x = \frac{15}{5} \longrightarrow \frac{ \cancel{15}}{ \cancel{5}} = \frac{3}{1} \\ x = 3$

Hence, the value of x is 3. But we are not finished yet because we need to find the value of y as well. Therefore, we substitute the value of x in any given equations. I will substitute the value of x in the second equation.

$x - 2y = - 5 \\ 3 - 2y = - 5 \\ 3 + 5 = 2y \\ 8 = 2y \\ \frac{8}{2} = y \\ y = \frac{8}{2} \longrightarrow \frac{ \cancel{8}}{ \cancel{2}} = \frac{4}{1} \\ y = 4$

Hence, the value of y is 4. Therefore, we can say that when x = 3, y = 4.

Answer Check by substituting both x and y values in both equations.

<u>First</u><u> </u><u>Equation</u>

$6x - 2y = 10 \\ 6(3) - 2(4) = 10 \\ 18 - 8 = 10 \\ 10 = 10 \longrightarrow \sf{true} \: \green{ \checkmark}$

<u>Second</u><u> </u><u>Equation</u>

$x - 2y = - 5 \\ 3 - 2(4) = - 5 \\ 3 - 8 = - 5 \\ - 5 = - 5 \longrightarrow \sf{true} \: \green{ \checkmark}$

Hence, both equations are true for x = 3 and y = 4. Therefore, the solution is (3,4)

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

$\begin{cases} x = 3 \\ y = 4 \end{cases} \\ \sf \underline{Coordinate \: \: Form} \\ (3,4)$

I could use some help please! please

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The integers could be 21 and 22

or -22 and -21

Step-by-step explanation:

If two integers are consecutive, then it means that their difference is just 1

if we have the initial value as x , then the other value could be x-1 or x + 1

let us go with x-1

So the product here is;

x(x-1) = 462

x^2-x = 462

x^2 -x -462 = 0

x^2 -22x + 21x - 462 = 0

x(x-22) + 21(x-22) = 0

(x + 21)(x-22) = 0

x = -21 or x = 22

If x = -21

x -1 = -21-1 = -22

if x = 22

x -1 = 22-1 = 21
