When n basketball uniforms are purchased, the cost, C, of each uniform is given by the equation.
1 answer:
Answer:
D. Subtraction property of equality; n = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation that shows the cost of n basketballs uniforms,
C = 40n + 260
According to the question,
Total cost = $ 860,
⇒ 40n + 260 = 860
Using subtraction property of equality, subtract 260 on both sides,
⇒ 40n = 860 - 260
⇒ 40n = 600
Using division property of equality, divide both sides by 40.
⇒ n = = 15.
Hence, 15 uniforms were purchased.
i.e. Option D is correct.

The solutions are (2.1925, 5.1925) and (-3.1925, -0.1925)
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
<em><u>We have to substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2</u></em>
Substitute x = 2.1925 in eqn 1
y = 2.1925 + 3
y = 5.1925
Substitute x = -3.1925 in eqn 1
y = -3.1925 + 3
y = -0.1925
Thus the solutions are (2.1925, 5.1925) and (-3.1925, -0.1925)
What is linear equation?
An equation between two variables that gives a straight line when plotted on a graph.
2x + 5xy - 3 = 0
x (2 + 5y) -3 = 0
x ( 2 + 5y ) = 3
2 + 5y = 3 / x
5y = (3/x) - 2
y = ( (3/x) - 2) / 5
According to the graph i don't think it's a linear equation.
