2.5y + 3x = 27
5x - 2.5y = 5
Align the variables to make solving this easier.
2.5y + 3x = 27
-2.5y + 5x = 5
You can see that the 2.5y and -2.5y cancel each other out. Then add the 3x and 5x, and 27 + 5.
3x = 27
5x = 5
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 4
Now input that x into one of the equations to get y.
2.5y + 3(4) = 27
2.5y + 12 = 27
2.5y = 15
y = 6
The answer to this system of equations is x = 4, y = 6. (4, 6)
Answer:
equation ---> 120+10(m)=150+4(m)
m= number of months
(By the way the answer would be 5 months)
Step-by-step explanation:
The root is the x intercepts or the zeros of the problem
If I were to graph
(x-5)(x+4)=0
We need a number for x which makes this equation 0
The numbers are 5 or -4
These are the x intercepts of the parabola or roots
