Answer:she had $63.75 at first.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of money that she had at first.
kathy spent 3 fifths of her money on a necklace. This means that the amount of money that she spent on the necklace is
3/5 × x = 3x/5
The amount of money remaining would be
x - 3x/5 = 2x/5
She used 2 thirds of the remainder on a bracelet. This means that the amount of money that she spent on the bracelet is 2/3 × 2x/5 = 4x/15
If the bracelet costs $17.00, then
4x/15 = 17
4x = 15 × 17
4x = 255
x = 225/4
x = 63.75
Answer:
( 5, 3/2 )
x = 5
y = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 4y = 19
x + 2y = 8
-------------------
2(x + 2y = 8) = 2x + 4y = 16
----------------------
5x - 4y = 19
2x + 4y = 16
7x = 35
÷7 ÷7
x = 5
-----------------------
x + 2y = 8
5 + 2y = 8
-5 -5
2y = 3
÷2 ÷2
y = ( 3/2 )
I hope this helps!
