A necklace and earrings cost $144. Six necklaces and five pairs of earrings cost $825

Mathematics
1 answer:
hram777 [196]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

let necklace : x

let earrings : y

x+y=144 -1st eqn

6x+5y=825 -2nd eqn

y=144-X -3rd eqn

substitute eqn into 2nd eqn

6x+5(144-x)= 825

6x +720-5X =825 (expanded)

X = 825-720

X =105

substitute "X=105" into 1st eqn

(105)+y=144

y= 144-105

y=39

1 necklace = 105$

1 pair of earrings = 39$

(to check back: substitute the value into the original eqn)

Which answer represents a geometric sequence?
exis [7]

Answer:

{−1008,−504,−252,−126,…}

Step-by-step explanation:

-504÷(-1 008)=0.5

(-252)÷(-504)=0.5

(-126)÷(-252)=0.5

In this sequence ,we multiply by 0.5 each time to get the next term

then it’s a geometric sequence.

(1, 4) is a solution to the system that includes y=3x + 1 and y = -x + 5.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3x + 1

y = -x+5

Check if (1,4) solves the first equation

4 = 3(1)+1

4 = 3+1

4=4

This is true

Check the second equation

4 = -1+5

4=4

This is true

(1,4) is a solution to the system of equations
