The solution to the system of equation is (2, 7)
<h3>System of equation</h3>
Given the system of equation expressed as:
3x – y = -1 * 2
x – 2y = -12 * 1
________________
6x – 2y = -2
x – 2y = -12
Subtract to have;
6x-x = -2-(-12)
5x = 10
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into 2 to have:
2 - 2y = -12
-2y = -14
y = 7
Hence the solution to the system of equation is (2, 7)

Answer:
There are 24 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of nickels
Let y represent the number of quarters
—————————————————————
Value Value
Type Number of of
of of each all
Coin Coin Coin Coin
—————————————————————
Nickels | x | $0.05 | $0.05x
Quarters | y | $0.25 | $0.25y
—————————————————————
Totals 28 ——— $2.20
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The first equation comes from the “Number of coins” column.
(Number of nickels) + (Number of quarters) = (total number of coins)
Equation: x + y = 28
—————————————————————
The second equation comes from the “value of all coins” column.
(Value of all nickels) + (Value of all quarters) = (Total value of all coins)
0.05x + 0.25y = 2.20
Remove the decimals by multiplying each term by 100:
5x + 25y = 220
—————————————————————
So we have the system of equations:
{x + y = 28
{5x + 25y = 202
Solve by substitution. Solve the first equation for y:
x + y = 28
y = 28 - x
Substitute (28 - x) for y in 5x + 25y = 220
5x + 25 (28 - x) = 220
5x + 700 - 25x = 220
-20x + 700 = 220
-20x = -480
x = 24
The number of nickels is 24.
————————————————————
Substitute in y = 28 - x
y = 28 - (24)
y = 4
The number of quarters is 4.
————————————————————
Checking:
24 nickels is $1.20 and 4 quarters is $1.00
That’s 28 coins.
Indeed $1.20 + $1.00 = $2.20

When a=6,
2a - 3 = 2(6) - 3 = 12 - 3 = <em><u>9</u></em>
