The answers are in the picture I hope this helps! Pls put me in the brainliest lol
Hey there!!
Let us take the price of the redwood as ' x ' and pine as ' y '
Then , we take it into an equation. We get,
50x + 80y = 285 -------------- ( 1 )
80x + 50y = 339 -------------- ( 2 )
Now, multiply the first equation with 8 and the second equation with 5
400x + 640y = 2280
400x + 250y = 1695
Now subtract the second equation from the first
390y = 585
y = 585 / 390
y = $1.5
Now substitute this into any equation
50x + ( 80 ) ( 1.5 ) = 285
50x + 120 = 285
50x = 165
x = 165 / 50
x = $3.3
Redwood = $3.3
Pine = $1.5
Hope helps!
Height and then the inches over 12.
Ex. 5'4" = 5 4/12 or 5 1/3
Answer:
b. (1, 3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.
It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:
a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18
b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice
c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18
d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18
This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:
2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1
-(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2
