4x - 5y = -15
y = -3x + 22
Plug in your y= equation into the y variable in the other equation
4x - 5 (y) = -15
^^
y = (-3x + 22) = -15
4x - 5 (-3x + 22) = -15
Distribute
4x + 15x - 110 = -15
Combine like terms and add 110 over to -15
19x = 95
Then, divide the whole equation by 19
x = 5
Then, plug in your x into your y= equation
y = -3 (5) + 22
y = -15 + 22
y = 7
<em><u>x = 5</u></em>
<em><u>y = 7</u></em>
<em><u>(5, 7)</u></em>
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: She bought 28 daises and 10 Tulips.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of daises bought.
Let y represent the number of tulips bought.
Your friend want to have 38 of her favorite flowers. This means that
x + y = 38
Her favorite flowers are daisies at 1.50 each and tulips at 2.50 each if the total bill was 67, it means that
1.5x + 2.5y = 67 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes
1.5(38 - y) + 2.5y = 67
57 - 1.5y + 2.5y = 67
- 1.5y + 2.5y = 67 - 57
y = 10
x = 38 - y = 38 - 10
x = 28
