Answer:

x=3, y=8; (3,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To use the substitution method, first solve for a variable.

2x+y=14

2x+y(-2x)=14(-2x)

y=14-2x

Now substitute y in the other equation with 14-2x

5x-2(14-2x)= - 1

Simplify by multiplying inside the parenthesis.

5x-28+4x= - 1

Combine the x values

9x-28= - 1

9x=27

x=3

Now substitute the x value in to solve for y

2(3)+y=14

6+y=14

y=8

The cost of renting a car is $75/wk plus $0.25/mi traveled during that week. An equation to represent the cost would be y = 75 +

ra1l [238]

Answer:

We know we have to pay $75 per weel plus $0.25 for each mile we traveled, from that, if we call x the miles we have travelled, the total cost would be:

$C = 75 + 0.25x$

As each mile we travel costs $0.25. Now that we have that expression, they ask us how many miles did we travel if we had to pay $96.25.

The only thing we have to do is replacing the C (our total cost) per $96.25 and solve the equation we get:

$96.25=75+0.25x$

$96.25-75=0.25x$

$21.25=0.25x$

$\frac{21.25}{0.25} = x$

$85 = x$

We hve traveled 85 miles.

Answer:

My friend Matthew bought four pizzas. We ate five eighths of each pizza leaving three eighths left in each box. How much pizza did we have left over between the four boxes?

4 times 3/8 is equal to 1.5. (just felt it was incomplete without this answer. Also, hope this was a satisfactory answer.)
