Tammy knits blanket and scarves. On the first day of a craft fair, she sells 2 blankets and 5 scarves for $104

omeli [17]

Answer:

Cost of Blanket = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a blanket be = b , cost of a scarf be = s. Blanket price x Blanket Quantity & Scarf Price x Scarf Quantity sum up to be total sales.

So, Day 1 : 2b + 5s = 104 (i) , Day 2 : 3b + 4s = 128 (ii)

Solving equations : Multiplying (i) by 3 , & (ii) by 2 , we get

6b + 15s = 312 ,

(-)6b + (-)8s = (-)256

By elimination method, 15s - 8s = 312 - 256 → 7s = 56 → s = 56 / 7 = 8 .

Putting s value in any equation i], 2b + 5 (8) = 104 → 2b + 40 = 104 → 2b = 104 - 40 = 64 → b = 64 / 2 = 32

Y = x -5<br> x + y = -1 <br> whats the soultion for the systeam of eqations

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

x = 2

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x - 5 -------------------(I)

x + y = -1 ----------------(II)

Substitute y = x -5 in equation (II)

x + (x - 5) = -1

x + x - 5 = -1 {Combine like terms}

2x - 5 = -1 {Add 5 to both sides}

2x = -1 + 5

2x = 4 {Divide both sides by 2}

x = 4/2

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 in equation (I)

y = 2 - 5

y = -3
