Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x−1−(−x + 3)=6−2x

(Distribute the Negative Sign)

2x−1 + −1(−x + 3)=6−2x

2x + −1 + −1(−x) + (−1)(3)=6−2x

2x + −1 + x + −3=6−2x

2x + −1 + x + −3=6 + −2x

(Combine Like Terms)

(2x + x) + (−1 + −3)=−2x+6

3x + −4=−2x + 6

3x−4=−2x + 6

Add 2x to both sides.

3x−4 + 2x=−2x + 6 + 2x

5x−4=6

Add 4 to both sides.

5x−4 + 4=6 + 4

5x=10

Divide both sides by 5.

5x/5=10/5

x=2

Two kg of tea and 3 kg of sugar cost rupees 39 in january 1997, However in march 1997 the price of the tea increased by 25% and
Irina18 [472]

Answer: tea = 15 rupees  per kg

sugar= 3 rupees per kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations with the information given:

<em>"Two kg of tea and 3 kg of sugar cost rupees 39 in january 1997": </em>

2 t + 3 s =39 (a)

Where:

  • t= price of 1 kg of tea
  • s = price of 1 kg of sugar

<em>"in march 1997 the price of the tea increased by 25% (1.25)and the price of the sugar increased by 20%(1.20) and the same quantity of tea and sugar cost rupees 48.30. "</em>

2(t1.25)+3(s1.2) = 48.30 (b)

  • <em>Solving for t in (b) </em>

2t =39-3s

t = (39 -3s)/2

t = 19.5-1.5s

  • <em>Replacing the value of t in (b) </em>

2 x ((19.5-1.5s)1.25)+ 3 ( 1.2s) =48.30

2x ( 24.375 -1.875s) +3.6s =48.30

48.75 -3.75s+3.6s= 48.30

48.75-48.30 = 3.75s-3.6s

0.45= 0.15s

0.45/0.15 =s

3 =s

  • <em>Replacing the value of s in (a) </em>

2 t + 3 (3) =39

2 t + 9 =39

2 t =39 -9

2 t =30

t = 30/2

t= 15

Prices in january:

tea = 15 rupees per kg

sugar= 3 rupees per kg

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
