RSB [31]

Slimination
multiply first equaiton by 2
2x+6y=10
add to second equiaotn
2x-2x+6y-6y=10-10
0=0
this is true so therfor they are the same equaiton

so solve
x+3y=5
3y=-x+5
y=-1/3x+5/3

subsituter values for x and get valuse for y

if x=2 then y=1

A coach purchases 47 hats for his players and their families at a total cost of $302. The cost of a small hat is $5.50. A medium

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of small hat purchased, y represent the number of medium hat purchased and z represent the number of large hat purchased.

Since a total of 47 hats where purchased, hence:

x + y + z = 47 (1)

Also, he spent a total of $302, hence:

5.5x + 6y + 7z = 302 (2)

He purchases three times as many medium hats as small hats, hence:

y = 3x

-x + 3y = 0 (3)

Represent equations 1, 2 and 3 in matrix form gives:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\5.5&6&7\\-3&1&0\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}47\\302\\0\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\\ \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\5.5&6&7\\-3&1&0\end{array}\right] ^{-1} \left[\begin{array}{c}47\\302\\0\end{array}\right] \\\\\\ \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}6\\18\\23\end{array}\right]$

Therefore he purchases 6 small hats, 18 medium hats and 23 large hats
