Multiply the first equation by 4 (so that both equations will have 8x terms) and then subtract:
8x-20y = -24
8x +3y = 68
------------
0 -23y = -92
Now divide both sides by -23:
y = 4
Find x by plugging y=4 into either equation:
8x +3(4) = 68
8x = 68 - 12
8x = 56
x = 7
So the answer is ordered pair is (7,4)
Answer:
2 dimes, 1 nickel and 3 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The price of 2 postcards is $1. Any combination of coins that adds to $1 will work here. Remember, a penny is worth 0.01, a nickel is worth 0.05, a dime is worth 0.10, and a quarter is worth 0.25.
Adding 2 dimes, 1 nickel, and 3 quarters would be 2(0.10)+1(0.05)+3(0.25)=1.
I think you’re right with 52.5
The simplified expression would be 6m-8n+4p
Y can be any number with the given question
