Answer:
x=1 y = -1/2
(1,-1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
7x-2y=8
5x+2y=4
I would use elimination since we have 2y in one equation and -2y in the other
7x-2y=8
5x+2y=4
--------------------
12x = 12
Divide each side by 12
12x/12 = 12/12
x =1
The substitute back into equation 2
5(1) +2y = 4
5 +2y = 4
Subtract 5
5-5+2y = 4-5
2y = -1
Divide by 2
2y/2 = -1/2
y = -1/2
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
She has everything correct but one thing. In order to have her answer correct, she must put the 9 in front of the 7 because the bigger number needs to go in front.
Each can of green beans costs ($3.00/5) = 60¢ at the
village market, and ($6.10/10) = 61¢ at Sam's Club.
If you're watching every penny, then that MIGHT be enough
of a difference to make you decide to buy your beans at the
village market, but not necessarily.
If, say, the village market is farther away from you, or if there are
other things you're going to get from Sam's anyway, then you
should buy your beans there too.
