Answer:

(x, y) = (2, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the first equation from the second.

(8x -2y) -(5x -2y) = (28) -(22)

3x = 6

x = 2

Substitute this into either equation and solve for y.

8(2) -2y = 28

8 -y = 14 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

y = 8 -14 = -6 . . . . add y-14 to both sides

The solution is (x, y) = (2, -6).

At noon, a barista notices she has $20 in her tip jar. If she makes an average of $0.50 from each customer, how much will she ha

RSB [31]

Answer:

She has $20 + $0.50n in her tip jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount in tip jar at noon = $20

Average amount made from each customer = $0.50

Number of additional customers served after noon = n

Therefore, we have:

Additional amount made after noon = Average amount made from each customer * Number of additional customers served after noon = $0.50 * n = $0.50n

Amount in tip jar = Amount in tip jar at noon + Additional amount made after noon = $20 + $0.50n

Therefore, she has $20 + $0.50n in her tip jar.
