4x + y = 5
3x + y = 8
y = -3x + 8

4x +(-3x + 8) = 5
4x -3x + 8 = 5
x + 8 = 5
x = -3

y = -3(-3) + 8
y = -9 + 8
y = -1

Answer:

x = -3 and y = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

4x + y = 5 --------(1)

and 3x + y = 8 ----------(2)

Now we subtract equation (2) from equation (1)

(4x+y) - (3x+y) = 5 - 8

(4x - 3x) + (y-y) = -3

x = -3

Now we put x = -3 in equation (1)

4(-3) + y = 5

-12 + y = 5

       y = 5 + 12 = 17

Therefore, x = -3 and y = 17 is the solution of the given system of equations.

xeze [42]
So we are given that he ordered a $15 meal
now we need to find how much will he have to pay with tax and tip

so first we find the sales tax of the meal
5% * 15 = 3/4 or 0.75
and the tip
15% * 15 = 9/4 or 2.25

we will add that to the meal price to find the total
15 + 2.25 + 0.75 
total is 18
So <span>If Allam ordered a $15 meal, we will have to pay $18 with tax and tip

Hope this helps :)
