Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
2x + y = 5
3x - 2y = 4
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
<em>Manipulate 1st equation</em>
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides: y = 5 - 2x
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em> [2nd Equation]: 3x - 2(5 - 2x) = 4
- [Distributive Property] Distribute -2: 3x - 10 + 4x = 4
- [Addition] Combine like terms: 7x - 10 = 4
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 10 on both sides: 7x = 14
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 7 on both sides: x = 2
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em> [Modified 1st Equation]: y = 5 - 2(2)
- Multiply: y = 5 - 4
- Subtract: y = 1

Answer:
£0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
t = one cup of tea
c = one piece of cake
t + c = £1.10
2t + c = £1.70
the cost increases by £0.60 (£1.70 - £1.10) when you order one more cup of tea which means that one cup of tea costs £0.60
substitute £0.60 into t + c = £1.10
£0.60 + c = £1.10
rearrange to get c = £1.10 - £0.60 = £0.50
so one piece of cake costs £0.50
Answer:
= 52sqrt3
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a trapezium is given by the formula;
1/2(a+b)h
Where a and b are the parallel sides and h is the perpendicular height.
a = 15 ft, b= 11 ft and h = 4√3
Therefore;
Area = 1/2 (15+11) 4√3
= 1/2 × 26 × 4√3
= 52√3 ft²

X=8-y
2(8-y)=10
16-2y=10
-2y=10-16
-2y=-6
y=3
x+3=8
x=8-3
x=5
(5,3) is the answer :)
