Answer:

x - y = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 4y = 13 → (1)

4x + 5y = 14 → (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) term by term , that is

(5x - 4x) + (4y - 5y) = 13 - 14

x - y = - 1

Answer:

x = 1

y = 2

x - y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 4y= 13,   then 4y = 13 - 5x, then y = (13 - 5x)/4

4x + 5y = 14

substitute for y:

4x + 5(13 - 5x)/4 = 14

simplifying:

4x + (65 - 25x)/4 = 14

4x + 16.25 -6.25x = 14

-2.25x = -2.25

x = 1

y = (13 - 5)/4 = 2

Let x = cost of the dishwasher.

The amounts the children are paying are:

Mark =20% = 1/5, so  1/5x

Sorin = 75

Raymond = 1/4x

Stephanie = 75

Kristin = 1/3x

Add them together:

x = 1/5x + 1/4x + 1/3x + 75 + 75

x - ( 1/5x + 1/4x + 1/3x ) = 150

Rewrite fractions with common denominator:

x - ( 12/60x + 15/60x + 20/60x ) = 150

60/60x - 47/60x = 150

13/60x = 150

x = 150/1 • 60/13

x = 9000/13

x = 692.31

The total cost of the dishwasher is $692.31

Now calculate the amount each child pays:

Mark = 1/5 x = 692.31/ 5 = $138.46

Sorin = $75.00

Raymond = 1/4 x = 692.31 / 4 = $173.08

Stephanie = $75.00

Kristin =  1/3 x = 692.31 / 3 = $230.77

lozanna [386]
To solve this, you see that the amount of mayo is double that of vinegar, so you can simply divide 16/2 to get 8 teaspoons of vinegar
