It costs an adult $12 and a child $8.50 to eat at the buffet.

2a+3c=49.40
3a+1c=44.50

c=44.50-3a

2a+3(44.50-3a)=49.50
-7a+133.5=49.50
a=12

2(12)+3c=49.50
3c=25.50
c=8.50

What is the solution of this system of linear equations?<br><br> 3y = x + 6<br><br> y – x = 3
Naya [18.7K]
<span>3y = x + 6
y – x = 3 ----------->  x=y - 3 (substitute in 1st equation)

3y = y - 3 +6
3y - y = 3
2y = 3
y = 2/3

x= y - 3 = 2/3 -3 = 2/3 - 9/3 =  - 7/3

</span>x= - 7/3, y = 2/3<span>
