Part a), solve this system of equations:
x + y = 5
x - y = 2.25
2x = 7.25
x = 3.625
y = 1.375
part b), solve this system of equations:
x + y = 5
x = 3y
y = 1.25
x = 3.75
We will solve this by suing simultaneous equations,
⇒ 5s + 3j = 87
4s + 2j = 64
Multiply the first equation with 4 and the second one with 5, this is to get one of the values equal so that we can cancel them out,
⇒ (5s + 3j = 87) × 4
(4s + 2j = 64) × 5
∴ ⇒ 20s + 12j = 348
20s + 10j = 320
Subtract both the equations. This is how your result (after subtraction) should look like,
⇒ 2j = 28
∴ ⇒ j = $14
Now replace the value of 'j' in one of the original equations,
⇒ 4s + 2(14) = 64
⇒ 4s + 28 = 64
⇒ 4s = 64 - 28
⇒ 4s = 36
∴ ⇒ s = $9
Therefore, one pair of jeans cost $14 and a shirt costs $9
Hope you understood! Feel free to ask me if you didn't understand a step.
The probability is 1/5 (or if you want it in decimals then it is 0.2) (if you want it in percent then it is 20%)
Hope that helped!!!
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
1.80m + 0.6s = 12.00
[substitute the value of m into the equation]
1.80×(3) + 0.6s = 12
5.4 + 0.6s = 12
[make s the subject of the formula]
0.6s = 12 - 5.4
0.6s = 6.6
[divide both sides of the equation by 0.6]
0.6s / 0.6 = 6.6 / 0.6
s = 11
To prove that 11 is correct
[substitute the value of m and s into the equation]
1.80m + 0.6m = 12.00
1.80×(3) + 0.6×(11) = 12.00
5.4 + 6.6 = 12.00
12.00 = 12.00
