Answer:

(2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to do this to avoid tedious fractions is to use the addition method (sometimes called the elimination method).  We will work to eliminate one of the variables.  Since the y values are smaller, let's work to get rid of those.  That means we have to have a positive and a negative of the same number so they cancel each other out.  We have a 2y and a 3y.  The LCM of those numbers is 6, so we will multiply the first equation by a 3 and the second one by a 2.  BUT they have to cancel out, so one of those multipliers will have to be negative.  I made the 2 negative.  Multiplying in the 3 and the -2:

3(-9x + 2y = -16)--> -27x + 6y = -48

-2(19x + 3y = 41)--> -38x - 6y = -82

Now you can see that the 6y and the -6y cancel each other out, leaving us to do the addition of what's left:

-65x = -130 so

x = 2

Now we will go back to either one of the original equations and sub in a 2 for x to solve for y:

19(2) + 3y = 41 so

38 + 3y = 41 and

3y = 3.  Therefore,

y = 1

The solution set then is (2, 1)

x=2 and y=1

proof:

-9x+2y=-16

-9(2)+2(1)=-16

which is a true statement

3. Yes the cost of each item is proportional because in each pack each t-shirt cost $2.33. You can check that by dividing the amount of money each pack cost by the amount of shirts in each pack. For example the pack of 3 is $7, so 7/3 = $2.33. The pack of 5 cost $11.65, so 11.65/5 = $2.33. And the pack of 7 cost $16.31, so 16.31/7 = $2.33

4) Yes, it is proportional because each x is being squared or multiplied by it’s self.

Which expression is equivalent to b + b - 0.56b?
Alexxx [7]
Hey there!

“Which expression is equivalent to b + b – 0.56b?”

• “b” or any other letter value is considered an “unknown number” so usually we label it/them as an invisible 1

• COMBINE the LIKE TERMS

(b + b – 0.56b)

(1b + 1b – 0.56b)
1b + 1b = 2b
2b – 0.56b = 1.44b

• Therefore, b + b – 0.56b is equivalent to 2b + 0.56b

Possible answer that you could be looking for: 2b + 0.56b ☑️

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
