Equation: 53x + 460 = 1096
Solution 1096 - 460 = 53x
636/53=x
12=x

Answer:
Solution of a System. In general, a solution of a system in two variables is an ordered pair that makes BOTH equations true. In other words, it is where the two graphs intersect, what they have in common. So if an ordered pair is a solution to one equation, but not the other, then it is NOT a solution to the system.
30/150 = 80/x
Reduce the fraction:
1/5 = 80/x
Cross multiply:
x = 5 x 80
x= 400
