35+5(4-s)=2550
35+20-5s=2550
55-5s=2550
-55 -55
-5s = 2495
s = - 499

-499 + a = 4
+499 +499
a = 503

S + a = 4   

35 + 5a = 2550

From the second equation:

35 + 5a = 2550

5a = 2550 - 35

5a = 2515

a = 2515/5

a = 503


From      s + a = 4

s + 503 =4

s = 4 - 503

s = -499

Therefore  a = 503,  s = -499

Help with this pleaseeee​
ELEN [110]

Answer:

(- 3, 37) and (- \frac{5}{2}, \frac{63}{2} )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x² - y + 19 = 0 → (1)

y + 11x = 4 → (2) ← subtract 11x from both sides

y = 4 - 11x → (3)

Substitute y = 4 - 11x into (1)

2x² - (4 - 11x) + 19 = 0

2x² - 4 + 11x + 19 = 0

2x² + 11x + 15 = 0 ← in standard form

(2x + 5)(x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

2x + 5 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 5 ⇒ x = - \frac{5}{2}

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y

x = - \frac{5}{2} : y = 4 + \frac{55}{2} = \frac{63}{2} ⇒ (- \frac{5}{2}, \frac{63}{2} )

x = - 3 : y = 4 + 33 = 37 ⇒ (- 3, 37 )

If I paid $205.50 for a phone that was 70% off, then what was the original price of the phone
slega [8]

Answer:

£349.35

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so firstly add the % to 100 = 170

then do 170 divided by 100 and multiply by the total ($205.50)

this would give you $349.35 <----- this is your orignal price (before the sale 70% off)
