J = jeans
T = t-shirts
You: 5j + 10t = 140
Friend: 3j + 5t = 79
To use elimination in this problem, multiply the second equation by -2 so that 10t and 5t can cancel out:
5j + 10t = 140
-6j - 10t = -158
We are left with -j = -18 or j = 18
Substitute 18 into any equation. I'll use the first equation:
5(18) + 10t = 140
90 + 10t = 140
10t = 50
t = 5
Answer:
cx + cy = a² + b²
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Next step is adding up cx and cy:</u>
<u>Then followed by:</u>
- c(x+y) = a² + b²
- c² = a² + b²
