The solution of the given system of equation is x = -3 and y = 4 respectively.
<h3>What is a system of linear equations?</h3>
A system of linear equations can be defined as a number of equations needed to solve the equations. For n number of variables n number of equations are required.
The given system of equations is as,
y = 4x + 16 (1)
y = −2x − 2 (2)
In order to solve them, substitute equation (2) into (1) as follows,
4x + 16 = −2x − 2
=> 4x + 2x = -2 - 16
=> 6x = -18
=> x = -3
Then, y = -2 × -3 - 2 = 4
Hence, the solution of the given system of equation is x = -3 and y = 4.

X - Columbian coffee ( in pounds),
y - Brazilian coffee ( in pounds );
x + y = 100
8.85 x + 3.85 y = 6.55 ( x + y )
----------------------------------------
x = 100 - y
8.85 ( 100 - y ) + 3.85 y = 6.55 * 100
855 - 8.55 y + 3.85 y = 655
- 5 y = - 230
y = ( - 230 ) : ( - 5 )
y = 46
x = 100 - 46
x = 54
Answer: 54 pounds of Columbian coffee and 46 pounds of Brazilian coffee should be used.
Answer: If the number of bills counted is odd, the ones digit is 5; if the number of bills is even, the ones digit is 0.
Explanation
1) Simulate the counting of the bills:
number of bills counted value ones digit
1 5 5
2 5 + 5 = 10 0
3 10 + 5 = 15 5
4 15 + 5 = 20 0
5 20 + 5 = 25 5
6 25 + 5 = 30 0
2) Pattern: you can see that the ones digit alreternate: 5, 0, 5, 0, 5, 0, ...
If the number of bills counted is odd the ones digit is 5, if the number of bills is even the ones digit is 0.
Let x gallons be the amount of pure antifreeze that should be added to the 30% solution to produce a solution that is 65% antifreeze. Then the total amount of antifreeze solution will be x+3 gallons.
There are 30% of pure antifreeze in 3 gallons of solution, then
3 gallons - 100%,
a gallons - 30%,
where a gallons is the amount of pure antifreeze in given solution.
Mathematically,
Now in new solution there will be x+0.9 gallons of pure antefreeze.
x+3 gallons - 100%,
x+0.9 - 65%
or
Answer: he should add 3 gallons of pure antifreeze.
