Answer: {x,y}={6,21}

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

  [2]    3x = 18

  [2]    x = 6

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

  [1]    2•(6) - y = -9

  [1]     - y = -21

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

  [1]    y = 21

// By now we know this much :

   x = 6

   y = 21

We are done

Answer:

y = 2x -6. A dependent system, so all numbers on this line.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y = 6

-3y = -6x + 18

In order to solve a system of equations, you want to get isolate y. One equation already has done that for us, so that makes it easier.

2x - y = 6

In order to isolate <em>y</em> in this equation, you must simply subtract 2x from both sides, which would give us:

-y = -2x + 6

Now, you can't leave <em>y </em>negative. Normally you'd divide the <em>y</em> by its variable, but this one doesn't have a variable. so you must divide both sides by -1.

\frac{-y}{-1} =\frac{-2x+6}{-1}

We divide both sides because what you do to one side you must do to the other. This leaves us with the equation:

y = 2x - 6

Now, for the other equation. It's simple since <em>y</em> is already isolated.

-3y = -6x + 18

Once again we will be dividing both sides, but this time it's by -3.

\frac{-3y}{-3} =\frac{-6x+18}{-3}

We are dividing by -3 instead of -1 because <em>y</em> in this equation has a variable of -3. This would give us:

y = 2x - 6

Now, normally in order to get the answer, you must graph both of these equations, but since these equations ended up being the same, the answer is every number that appears on the line. This is called a dependent system.

The conversion rate for US Dollars to Costa Rican Colones is 1 USD = 518 Colones.
allsm [11]

The cost of 0.5 kg of bananas is 393.60 Colones as per the given conversion rates

Conversion rate of 1 USD to Costa Rican Colones = 518 Colones

The conversion rate of kg to pounds given in the question: 1 kg = 2.2025 lbs

Cost of one pound of bananas = $0.69

Bananas required to be purchased = 0.5kg

Converting 0.5kg bananas to pounds = 0.5*2.2025 = 1.10125 pounds

Cost of 1.10125 pound of bananas in dollars = 1.10125*0.69 = 0.7598

Cost of 1.1025 pounds of bananas in Colones = 0.7598*518 = 393.60 Colones

Hence, the cost is 393.60

Therefore, the cost of 0.5 kg bananas in Colones is 393.60 Colones

Put together, Dulcina and Tremaine have 129 total matchbooks. Tremaine's collection has 39 fewer matchbooks in it than Dulcina's
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Let the Dulcina's collection be 'x'

Let the Tremaine collection be 'x-39'

x + x - 39 =129

2x = 129 +39

2x = 168

x = 168/2

x = 84

Dulcina's collection = x = 84

Tremaine's collection = x - 39 = 84 - 39 = 45
