Answer:

x = 2, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

47x + 31y = 63...eqn 1

31x + 47y = 15...eqn 2

multiply eqn 1 by 47 to get eqn 3 and multiply eqn 2 by 31 to get eqn 4...

=> 2209x + 1457y = 2961...eqn 3

=> 961x + 1457y = 465...eqn 4

subtract eqn 4 from eqn 3

=> 1248x = 2496

=> x =2

subst x =2 in eqn 1

=> 94 + 31y = 63

=> 31y = -31

=> y = -1

A particular chemistry book costs $6 less than a particular physics book, while two such chemistry books and three such physics
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the Physics book costs $x

The Chemistry book will cost $x - $6

Two such Chemistry books will cost;

2($x - $6) = $(2x - 12)

Three such Physics books cost $3x

$(2x - 12) + $3x = $123

$5x - $12 = $123

$5x = $111

x = $22\frac{1}{5}

So the Physics book costs;  $22\frac{1}{5}

and the Chemistry book costs  $22\frac{1}{5} - 6 =  $16\frac{1}{5}

Two angles are supplementary one angle measure 12 more than the other find the measures
Furkat [3]
We have a + b = 180 and a = 12 + b;
Then, 12 + b + b = 180;
12 + 2b = 180;
2b = 168;
b = 84;
a = 12 + 84;
a = 96;

A,C,D

"B" is definitely not the answer because the fraction isn't negative but the decimal is negative which isn't right.
