Answer:
(x, y) = (3, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
2x + 3y = 9 → (1)
x + 5y = 8 → (2)
multiplying (2) by - 2 then adding to (1) will eliminate the term in x
multiply (2) by - 2
- 2x - 10y = - 16 → (3)
add 1(1) and (3) term by term
(2x - 2x) + (3y - 10y) = (9 - 16)
- 7y = - 7 ( divide both sides by - 7 )
y = 1
Substitute y = 1 in either (1) or (2) and solve for x
(1) : 2x + 3 = 9 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 3
Solution is (3, 1 )
Answer:
Each batch of scones needed 0.67 kg of flour
Step-by-step explanation:
16.45 - 6.4 = 10.05kg (remaining)
15 batches = 10.05kg
1 batch = 0.67kg
Given:
The system of equations is:
Line A: 
Line B: 
To find:
The solution of given system of equations.
Solution:
We have,
...(i)
...(ii)
Equating (i) and (ii), we get



Divide both sides by 2.

Substituting
in (i), we get
The solution of system of equations is (-4,-8).
Now verify the solution by substituting
in the given equations.


This statement is true.
Similarly,



This statement is also true.
Therefore, (-4,-8) is a solution of the given system of equations, because the point satisfies both equations. Hence, the correct option is C.
