Answer:

38 women

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 9 (1 point)

In the middle school PTA there is a total of 47 men and women. The number of women the PTA is 2 more than four times the number of men. How many women are in the

PTA?

Let the number of men = x

Let the number of women = y

x + y = 47

y = 2 + 4x

We substitute

x + 2 + 4x = 47

Collect like terms

5x = 47 - 2

5x = 45

x = 45/5 = 9

y = 2 + 4x

y = 2 + 4 × 9

y = 2 + 36

y = 38

Therefore, the number of women = y = 38 women

Hudson went into a grocery store and bought 5 peaches and 7 mangos, costing a total of $16. Austin went into the same grocery st
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

the mango cost 1.75$ each and the peach 0.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

M= mango

P=peach

we know that Hudson spend 16$ buying 7 mangos and 5 peaches. So we can write the equation

(1) 16=7M+5P---> (2)P=(16-7M)/5

and we know that Austin spend 14.50 buying 4 mangos and 10 peaches.

we write the equation

(3)14.50=4M+10P

and we replace the P with the equation (2)

14.5=4M+10*(16-7M)/5

14.5=4M+2*(16-7M)

14.5-32=4M-14M

M=1,75$

and now we replace M in eq. (2)P=(16-7*1.75)/5=0.75$

Solve this system of linear equations. Separate
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

x = -7, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{3 y - 2 x = 11 | (equation 1)

2 y + 3 x = -23 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{3 x + 2 y = -23 | (equation 1)

-(2 x) + 3 y = 11 | (equation 2)

Add 2/3 × (equation 1) to equation 2:

{3 x + 2 y = -23 | (equation 1)

0 x+(13 y)/3 = -13/3 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 3/13:

{3 x + 2 y = -23 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -1 | (equation 2)

Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{3 x+0 y = -21 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:

{x+0 y = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = -1 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: x = -7, y = -1
