You need to solve this "system of linear equations." In other words, find a point (x,y) that satisfies both 4x-3y=17 and 2x-5y=-11.
Try solution by elimination. Multiply the 2nd equation by -2 to obtain -4x+5y=22. Add this result to the 1st equation. I'd suggest you write this out to see what is happening.
4x-3y=17
-4x+10y=22
----------------
7y=39. Solving for y, we get y=39/7 (a rather awkward fraction).
Now find x. To do this, substitute 39/7 for y in either of the given equations. Solve the resulting equation for x.
Write your solution in the form (x, y): ( ? , 39/7).
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to write equation for both mandy and bill on how many books they read depending on how many months passed.
Mandy's equation:
16 + 2x
she starts with 16 read books and she reads 2 books each month which is in total 2*x where x is number of months
Bill's equation:
4x
because from table we can see he is reading 4 new books each month.
now we need to make those 2 equations equal to eachother and solve for x because we want to see after how many months both will read the same that is why we set them equal.
16 + 2x = 4x
16 = 2x
x = 8
That means that in december he will catch her (if i counted months correctly :) )
