4a + 7b = 38 -> (1)
9a + 7b = 68 -> (2)

Subtract (1) from (2),
9a - 4a + 7b - 7b = 68 - 38
5a = 30
a = 6

eimsori [14]

Answer:

y = (2x/9) + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for y we get 3(-2y+x) = 5(-3y+x)+9

Expand the above we get -6y+3x=5(-3y+x)+9

which is -6y+3x = -15y+5x+9

then 9y = 2x+9

which y = (2x/9) + 1

Manuel noticed that his cellphone bill reflected a monthly fee of
Tomtit [17]

Answer: (total amount paid - $40) / 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Monthly fee = $40

Additional fee = $0.05 per minute on phone

Given the the amount paid for the month is available, number of minutes he was on phone can be determined thus :

Total amount to be paid = monthly fee + additional fee

Additional fee = $0.05 × n

Where n = number of minutes on phone

Hence,

Total amount paid = $40 + $0.05n

If the amount paid is known, the number of minutes on phone can be calculated thus;

(Total amount paid - monthly fee) = $0.05n

n = (Total amount paid - monthly fee) / fee per minute on phone

(total amount paid - $40) / 0.05
