Let, the cost of a belt = x
cost of a wallet = y
Then, system of equations would be:
x + y = 42
7x + 4y = 213
Multiply 1st equation by 4,
4x + 4y = 168
Substitute it from 2nd equation,
3x = 45
x = 15
Now, substitute it in 1st equation,
15 + y = 42
y = 42 - 15 = 27
In short, Belt costs $15 and wallet costs $27
Hope this helps!
Answer:
third choice, 5(x+2y-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply every item in the parentheses by 5.
(2X-3)(4-3X)
=8X-6X²-12+9X
=-6X²+17X-12
That's your answer.
