(-5x+7y=11) - (-5x+3y=19) =
4y = -8. (divide both sides by 4)
y = -2
Substitute
-5x + 7(-2) =11
-5x - 14 =11
-5x = 25
x = -5
y = -2 and x = -5
The answer is C. all the savings added up is $450. 1 percent of 3,470 is $34.7. $450/$34.7 is 12.9682997, which rounded up is 13.
Answer:
128/7 or 18 2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
the decimal answer is 18.28571428... so if you round it, it is 18.3
So,
x + y = 117
y = x + 1
x + x + 1 = 117
Collect Like Terms
2x + 1 = 117
Subtract 1 from both sides
2x = 116
Divide both sides by 2
x = 58
y = x + 1
y = 58 + 1
y = 59
The 2 consecutive integers are 58 and 59.
