Answer:

(B) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let small puppet be represented by-----------------s

Let large puppet be represented by-----------------l

Total number of puppets expression will be: s+l =25---------a

The expression for total costs will be : 1$ s + $2l=$30-------b

Equation a can be written as; s= 25-l ------------c

Use equation c in equation b as

$1( 25-l )+$ 2l = $30

25-l + 2l = 30

25+l =30

l= 30-25 =5

l, large puppets = 5

s, small puppets = 25-5 = 20

Answer choice A is incorrect because 25 is the total number of all puppets

Answer choice C and D are incorrect because the numbers are less that that of small puppets.

Solve using the elimination method:<br> X-3y=7<br> 3x + 3y=9

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

$x=4\\\\y=-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

$x-3y=7$ Equation:1

$3x + 3y=9$ Equation:2

Dividing Equation:2 by '3' both the sides:

$x+y=3$

or $x=3-y$ Equation:3

Putting the vale of 'x' in Equation:1

$x-3y=7$

$(3-y)-3y=7\\\\3-y-3y=7\\\\3-4y=7\\\\$

Subtracting '3' both sides

$-4y=7-3\\\\-4y=4$

$y=\frac{4}{-4}$

$y=-1$

Putting value of 'y' in Equation:3

$x=3-y$

$x=3-(-1)\\\\x=3+1\\\\x=4$

The solution of the equations is :

$x=4\\\\y=-1$

A line joins the point

Harrizon [31]

Intersection of the first two lines:

$\begin{cases}5x - 2y + 3 = 0\\4x - 3y + 1 = 0\end{cases}$

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5:

$\begin{cases}20x - 8y + 12 = 0\\20x - 15y + 5 = 0\end{cases}$

Subtract the two equations:

$(20x - 8y + 12)-(20x - 15y + 5)=0 \iff 7y+7=0 \iff y=-1$

Plug this value for y in one of the equation, for example the first:

$5x - 2\cdot (-1) + 3 = 0\iff 5x+5=0 \iff x=-1$

So, the first point of intersection is $(-1,-1)$

We can find the intersection of the other two lines in the same way: we start with

$\begin{cases}x=y\\x=3y+4\end{cases}$

Use the fact that x and y are the same to rewrite the second equation as

$x=3x+4 \iff 2x=-4 \iff x=-2$

And since x and y are the same, the second point is $(-2, -2)$

So, we're looking for a line passing through $(-1,-1)$ and $(-2, -2)$ . We may use the formula to find the equation of a line knowing two of its points, but in this case it is very clear that both points have the same coordinates, so the line must be $y=x$

In the attached figure, line $5x - 2y + 3 = 0$ is light green, line $4x - 3y + 1 = 0$ is dark green, and their intersection is point A.

Simiarly, line $x=y$ is red, line $x = 3y + 4$ is orange, and their intersection is B.

As you can see, the line connecting A and B is the red line itself.
