It’s bevause you can see what you are doing instead of doing it all of your head which could get messed up.
Solve for y in the first equation.
y = 4x + 6
Substitute <span>4x + 6 into the second equation.
-5x - (</span><span>4x + 6) = 21
Distribute
-5x - 4x - 6 = 21
Combine like terms
-9x = 27
Divide both sides by -9
x = -3
Substitute back into first equation
-4(-3) + y = 6
Solve for y
y = -6</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of attendees that it will take the company to break even.
The company pays a flat fee of $98 to rent a facility in which to hold each session. Additionally, for every attendee who registers, the company must spend $16 to purchase books and supplies. This means that the total cost that the company would pay for x attendees is
16x + 98
Each attendee will pay $65 for the seminar. This means that the total revenue that the company would generate from x attendees is 65x.
At the break even point,
total cost = total revenue
Therefore,
16x + 90 = 65x
65x - 16x = 98
49x = 98
x = 98/49
x = 2
It will take 2 attendees and the total expenses and revenues is
2 × 65 = $130
