Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the two costs is $52, so we can write ...
x + y = 52
The shoes cost $4 more than the jacket, so we can write ...
x - y = 4
These are your system of equations.
__
Subtract the second equation from the first:
(x +y) -(x -y) = (52) -(4)
2y = 48 . . . . . simplify
y = 24 . . . . . . .divide by 2
The cost of the jacket is $24.
X=hours of plan A
y=hours of plan B
wed: 5x+6y=12
thu: 3x+2y=6
so
5x+6y=12 and
3x+2y=6
we can eliminate y's by multiplying 2nd equation by -3 and adding to first equation
-9x-6y=-18
<u>5x+6y=12 +</u>
-4x+0y=-6
-4x=-6
divid both sides by -4
x=-6/-4
x=3/2
x=1.5
sub back
3x+2y=6
3(1.5)+2y=6
4.5+2y=6
2y=1.5
y=0.75
Plan A=1.5 hours
Plan B=0.75 hours
