Multiply the first equation by 2:
4x+10y=8
Subtract the second equation from this so the 4x cancels:
3y = -3
y = -1
Plug into first equation:
2x -5 = 4
2x = 9
x = 9/2 = 4 1/2 = 4.5
So (x,y) = (-1,4.5)

Answer: 3/5</h3>
Work Shown:
3 blue + 3 red = 6 pens that are either blue or red
4 black + 3 blue + 3 red = 10 pens total
6/10 = 3/5 is the probability of selecting either blue or red
3/5 = 0.60 = 60%
Answer:
he would pay $4.50 for it.
Step-by-step explanation:
all you do is take the $30 and times that by 15% and you get $4.50.
Let p be the prize of a pen and m the prize of a mechanical pencils. If you buy six pens and one mechanical pencil, you spend 6p+m. We know that this equals 9, because you get 1$ change from a 10$ bill.
Similarly, if you buy four pens and two mechanical pencils, you spend 4p+2m, which is 8$, because now you get a $2 change. Put these equation together in a system:

Now, if you multiply the first equation by 2, the system becomes

Subtract the second equation from the first:

Plug this value into the first equation to get
