Add two like terms: 16x+(-9x)=7x
Add 15 to both sides: 7x=28
Divide 7 on both sides: x=4
<span>First, you need to find out how much will the candle cost per volume. If a candle with a volume of 80cm^3 costs $12, the price of the candle per cm^3 would be: $12/80cm^3= $0.15/cm^3
Then the price of a candle with </span>120 cm^3 volume would be:120cm^3* $0.15/cm^3= $18
The solution of the equation is x= 3 and y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
-3x-4y = -17 and
-x-3y = -9
The system of equation can be rewritten as
3x+4y = 17 ------eq 1 and
x+3y = 9 ------ eq 2
To solve for x and y
Multiplying eq 2 by 3 we get,
3x + 9y = 27
or, 3x = 27-9y
Putting this value of x into eq 1 we get,
27-9y +4y = 17
or, -5y = 17-27
or, -5y = -10
or, y = 2
Now put y=2 in eq 2 we get,
x = 9 - 3(2)
= 3
Hence the solution is x = 3 and y = 2
