Answer:

x =20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve

$240         320

----------- = ------------

15                x

Using cross products

240x = 320 * 15

240x =4800

Divide by 240 on each side

240x/240 = 4800/240

x =20

Answer:

Part 1:

The solution set of the system of equations is x = 1, y = 1

Part 2:

The solution set is x = 1, y = 1

Part 3:

The similarity of the system of equations in Parts 1 and 2 is that they have the same solution set

The difference of the system of equations in Parts 1 and 2 is that they are arranged differently

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

The system of equation is given as follows;

2·x + y = 3...(1)

x = 2·y - 1...(2)

The above system of equations can be written in terms of the variable, y, as follows;

For equation (1), we have;

y = 3 - 2·x

For equation (2), we have;

y = (x + 1)/2

From the attached graph created with Microsoft Excel, we have;

The solution set (the point of intersection) of the system of equations is x = 1, y = 1

To accurately find the common solution, we have;

(x + 1)/2 = 3 - 2·x

x + 1 = 2·(3 - 2·x) = 6 - 4·x

x + 1 = 6 - 4·x

x + 4·x = 6 - 1

5·x = 5

x = 5/5 = 1

x = 1

Therefore, y = 3 - 2·x = 3 - 2× 1 = 1, at the common solution

Part 2:

y = -2x + 3

x - 2y = -1

∴ x = 2y -1

y = -2(2y -1) + 3

y = -4y + 2 + 3

5y = 5

y = 1

x = 2y - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1

x = 1

The solution set is x = 1, y = 1

Part 3

The system of equations are similar in terms of their solution

The system of equations are different in terms of their arrangement
