I'm just guessing at this point. But, by the looks of it, red does seem like it would be correct. Again, this is just a guess. So, if it's wrong I'm so sorry. Have a lovely day.
Answer: x= 1 , y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -6x + 13 ................. equation 1
y = 3x + 4 ................ equation 2
substitute y = 3x + 4 into equation 1 , then we have
3x + 4 = - 6x + 13
collect the like terms , we have
3x + 6x = 13 - 4
9x = 9
x = 1
substitute x = 1 into equation 2 , we have
y = 3(1) + 4
y = 3 + 4
y = 7
Therefore : x = 1 and y = 7
Answer: it cost a customer $7.25 to buy five tulips and $10.5 to buy six roses.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of 1 tulip.
Let y represent the cost of 1 rose.
The price of each tulip is the same and the price of each roses the same. One customer bought seven tulips and nine roses for $25.90. This means that
7x + 9y = 25.9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Another customer bought for four tulips and eight roses for $19.80. This means that
4x + 8y = 19.8- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 7, it becomes
28x + 36y = 103.6
28x + 56y = 138.6
Subtracting, it becomes
- 20y = - 35
y = - 35/ - 20
y = 1.75
Substituting y = 1.75 into equation 2, it becomes
4x + 8 × 1.75 = 19.8
4x + 14 = 19.8
4x = 19.8 - 14 = 5.8
x = 5.8/4
x = 1.45
The cost of 5 tulips would be
1.45 × 5 = $7.25
The cost of 6 roses would be
1.75 × 6 = $10.5
