Answer:

x = -3

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3y = 18

-3x - 12y = -75

multiply first equation by 4

4 × (x + 3y) = 18 ➡ 4x + 12y = 72

now add the two equations up

4x + 12y - 3x -12y = 72 - 75 (-12y will eliminate 12y)

x = -3

If Fun Reads Bookstore has a ready club with a $40 fee and charges $5 per book and Cool Covers Bookstores club charges $100 fee

choli [55]

Answer:

You have to buy more than 20 books to make Cool Cover Bookstore club a better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Fee charged by Fun Reads Bookstore = $40

Charges per book = $5

Let x be the number of books.

A(x) = 5x+40

Fee charged by Cool Covers Bookstore = $100

Charges per book = $2

B(x) = 2x+100

For making Cool Cover Bookstores club a better deal,

B(x) > A(x)

2x+100 > 5x+40

2x-5x > 40-100

-3x > -60

Dividing both sides by -3

$\frac{-3x}{-3}>\frac{-60}{-3}\\x>20$

Hence,

You have to buy more than 20 books to make Cool Cover Bookstore club a better deal.
