Rearrange the first equation
2x + y = 20
take away 2x from both sides
y = 20 - 2x 
substitute this y value into the second equation
6x - 5(20 - 2x) = 12
6x -100 +10x = 12
add 100 to both sides
6x + 10x = 112
16x = 112
divide both sides by 16 
x = 7
Substitute this x value into the first equation to get y.
2(7) + y = 20
14 + y = 20
take away 14 from both sides
y = 6

So, y = 6 and x = 7

5(2x + y = 20) = (10x + 5y = 100)
(10x + 5y = 100) + (6x - 5y = 12) = 16x = 112
112/16 = 7

The final answer is 7.

The subtraction sign in front of the second set of parenthesis changes the signs on the terms inside those parenthesis.  So this could be rewritten as  x-3x^4+2x^2+x^3-4x^6.  None of the exponents on the x are the same, so we will just express it in terms of descending powers of x.   -4x^6-3x^4+x^3+2x^2+x.   This is also the same as  4x^6+3x^4-x^3-2x^2-x  if you don't like to start with a negative.  Either one is correct.

Monica’s school band held a car wash to raise money for a trip to a parade in New York City. After washing 125 cars, they made $
nikklg [1K]

The system of linear equations represents the situation is;

x + y = 125

x + y = 1255x + 8y = 775

<h3>Simultaneous equation</h3>

Simultaneous equation is an equation in two unknown values are being solved for at the same time.

let

  • number of quick washes = x
  • number of premium washes = y

x + y = 125

5x + 8y = 775

From equation (1)

x = 125 - y

5x + 8y = 775

5(125 - y) + 8y = 775

625 - 5y + 8y = 775

- 5y + 8y = 775 - 625

3y = 150

y = 150/3

y = 50

  • Substitute y = 50 into

x + y = 125

x + 50 = 125

x = 125 - 50

x = 75

Therefore, the number of quick washes and premium washes Monica’s school band had is 75 and 50 respectively.
