\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-3x+y=6&|\text{add 3x to both sides}\\5x+2y=23\end{array}\right\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=3x+6\\5x+2y=23\end{array}\right\\\\\text{substitute}\ y=3x+6\ \text{to the second equation}\\\\5x+2(3x+6)=23\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\5x+(2)(3x)+(2)(6)=23\\\\5x+6x+12=23\qquad|\text{subtract 12 from both sides}\\\\11x=11\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 11}\\\\\boxed{x=1}\\\\\text{subtract the value of x to the first equation}\\\\y=3(1)+6\\\\y=3+6\\\\\boxed{y=9}

<h3>Answer: x = 1 and y = 9 → (1, 9).</h3>

Esme buys jacketsfor 500 each and prices them for 700 each.If the selling price is reduced by 20%. how much profitdoes Esme make
Blababa [14]

Answer:

($) 60 is the profit per item when the selling price is reduced by 20%

Step-by-step explanation: 20% of 700 is 140.

The original profit is 700 - 500 = 200. The selling price is 140 less, Subtract 140 from 200. That leaves a profit of 60. (Not necessarily dollars, as the currency was not given in the question.)

Help with all three IM CONFUSED
icang [17]

Answer:

How does y vary with x?

This is called direct variation and to find proportionality, we use the formula y/x = K

Step-by-step explanation:

The first table's results would look like:

6:15

12:30

18:45

24:60

30:75

To do these, you divide the y values by the constant to receive x.

If you need more help, you message me :) Good luck with your work!
