Answer:

Okay you have isolate a variable. As long as you perform the some operation on both sides the equations holds true. So I'll multiply the bottom one by three. 3x - 3y = 27. Now if I add the equations together I get 5x is 35 or x is 7. Then plug it back into either equation. 7 minus what is 9? -2. Y is -2

Answer: x = 7 and y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x +3y = 8 ----------------(1)

x-y = 9 ----------------------(2)

multiply (2) by 2

2x-2y = 18--------------------(3)

subtract (2) from (3)

-5y = 10

Divide bothside by -5

y = -2

Similarly, multiply (2) by 3

3x-3y = 27-----------------------(4)

add (1) and (4) together

5x = 35

Divide bothside by 5

x= 7

Therefore, x =7 and y= -2

42.5p=c

You get you get the number 42.5 since you know 10 people paid 425, you would divide 425 by 10 to know how much every person paid.

M is representing the amount of money each person paid

(M)10=425
M=425/10
M=42.50 <- since it’s about money

Each person paid $42.50


The cost for 15 people is $637.50.

42.5p=c
42.5(15)=637.5

Answer:

<h2>15%</h2><h2></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

this week sold = $2,760

last week sold = $2,400

the difference from this week to last week = 2700-2400 = 360

that means it increased : 360 / 2400 = 0.15 (100%) = 15%

therefore, the increase of sale is 15%
