For the second equation, y=2x-3. Substituting this in, you get 2x+2x-3=5. Add the 2x's (4x), and add 3 to the 5 (8). You should get 4x=8, which will give you x=2.

If y equals 2x - 3 in the second equation, than subsitute it in for y in the first.
2x + 2x - 3 = 5
4x - 3 = 5
4x = 8
x=2
2(2) + y = 5
x = 2 and y = 1

Answer:

D. $f(t)=300+0.20t$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mikayla is a waitress who makes a guaranteed $50 per day.

Since Miklaya works 6 days per week, so the guaranteed income for one week would be $\$50\times 6=\$300$

We are also told that she gets tips of 20% of all her weekly customer receipts, t. So amount earned from tips would be 20% of t, that is $\frac{20}{100}t=0.20t$ .
