To start take the equation and then plug in 9 for x
3x+4y=43
3(9)+4y=43
27+4y=43
Subtract 27 from each side to get all of the y's by themselves
27+4y-27=43-27
4y=16
Divide by four to get the value of one y
4y/4=16/4
y=4
Well, plug in 3 to x, and -4 to y.
5(3) + 2(-4) = 7
15 - 8 = 7
7=7
Yes, (3, -4) is a solution.
Answer:
26 child tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
4c = a to make the adult tickets equal to the child tickets multiply the child tickets by 4. then use substitution.
6.10c + 9.90(4c) = 1188.20
6.10c +39.6c = 1188.20
45.7c = 1188.20
c = 26
Subsitute -4y for x
-4y+6y=18
2y=18
divide both sides by 2
y=9
sub back
x=-4y
x=-4(9)
x=-36
(x,y)
(9,-36)
