Answer::.x=6,y=2
3x - 5y = 8......(1)
X - 5y = - 4......(2)
subtracting equation 2 from 1 we get
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 5y = 8
X - 5y = - 4
-
------------------
2x=12
x=12/2=6
multiplying equation 2 by3 weget
3x-15y=-12........(3)
subtracting equation 1from 3
3x-15y=-12
3x-5y=8

------------------
-10y=-12-8
y=-20/-10=2

Answer and explanation:
Given:
Royal soil= $6.50 per pound
Royal peasant = $2 per pound of 10 pounds
Blend total pounds is x+10, price is unknown hence solved below
Using algebra
We find unknown x = number of pounds of royal soil
$6.50(x)+$2(10)=6.50x+20/x+10(x+10)
= 6.50x+20= 6.50x²+85x+200
The formula for simple interest is <em>I</em> = <em>prt</em>, where <em>I</em> is the amount of interest, <em>p</em> is the principal borrowed, <em>r</em> is the interest rate written as a decimal number, and <em>t</em> is the amount of time in years. First we find the amount of interest. He borrowed $35000 but paid back $46375. That means he paid 46375-35000 = $11375 in interest. We can now substitute our information into our interest formula:
11375=35000(<em>r</em>)(5)
11375=35000(5)(<em>r</em>) ----- remember that multiplication is commutative
11375=175000<em>r</em>
Divide both sides by 175000 to cancel it:
11375/175000 = 175000<em>r</em>/175000
0.065 = <em>r</em>
To convert this to a percentage, we multiply by 100:
0.065(100) = 6.5%
