Answer:

(x, y) = (-1, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 8

y = 5 - x

Substituting the second equation into the first equation, we get:

5 - x = 2x + 8

5 = 3x + 8

-3 = 3x

x = -1.

So, y = 5 - (-1).

Simplifying, we get:

y = 6.

56 students signed up for the school play. About 34% of these students were boys. At the auditions only 31 girls attended. What

Elza [17]

56 students represents 100 % and

X boys represent 34%,

so x= 56•34/100= 19.04 so approximately 19 boys

56-19= 37 girls signed up.

Now 37 girls represent 100% and 31 girls represent x % ,

So x= 31•100/37= 83.78% about 84% of the girls attended
