X = 2 y =-3 Plug these values in;-

2 - 3b = 5
2a + 9 = -1

from first equation -3b = 3  so b = -1
from second equation 
2a = -10 so a = -5

Since (2, -3) is a solution, that means x = 2 and y = -3 would satisfy the equations.

x + by = 5                                              Ax - 3y = -1

2 + b*-3 = 5                                          A*2 - 3*-3 = -1

2 - 3b =5                                              2A + 9 = -1

-3b = 5 - 2                                            2A = -1 - 9  

-3b = 3                                                  2A = -10

b = 3/-3                                                    A = -10/2 

b = -1                                                        A = -5

b = -1 and A = -5

Hope this helps.

X + y = 20 Substitute
x by 2 y - 4 in x + y = 20 to obtain 2 y •
4 + y = 20 Solve for y to find y = 8 and

Where it cuts off it says renting. Please help me.
pishuonlain [190]
Letter a I think is correct because if it's 2.5 per game plus 5 dollars per month then the equation is 2.5v+5 and for 4 games it is 2.5(4)+5 which equals 15 and 5(4) is 20 so letter a is corrext correct
