Answer:
The system of equations is:
x + y = 15
xy = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
solve the first for y and substitute in the second:
y = 15-x
x(15-x) = 15
15x - x� = 15
15x - x� - 15 = 0
-x� + 15x - 15 = 0
x� - 15x + 15 = 0

Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
The total profit is $93
He made a $45 profit selling hats
The question says he only sold t-shirts and hats
Since we are solving for the amount of t-shirts sold we subtract $45 from $93 and get $48 dollars earned from t-shirts
He makes $3 per t-shirt
We divide the amount per t-shirt by the total t-shirt money earned
This looks like: 48/3
We get 16 as our answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
$6/(2 DVDs) = $3/DVD, and $8/(4 CDs) = $2/CD
a DVD costs $3
a CD costs $2
Lynn bought 4 DVDs and 2 CDs for 4×$3 + 2×$2 = $16.
Pierre bought d DVDs and c CDs for $20.
d is 0, 2, 4, or 6
c = (20-3d)/2
(d,c) = (0,10), (2,7), (4,4), or (6,1)
