Let s and g represents the numbers of suits and gowns produced.
The number of zippers used is 2s+g.
The number of buttons used is 5s+8g.
In order to use all of the available zippers and buttons, we must have ...
- 2s + g = 171
- 5s + 8g = 576
Cramer's rule tells you the solution to the system
Is given by
- x = (bf-ey)/(bd-ea)
- y = (cd-fa)/(bd-ea)
Using this rule on the equations for zippers and buttons, we have
... s = (1·576 -8·171)/(1·5 -8·2) = -792/-11 = 72
... g = (171·5 -2·576)/-11 = -297/-11 = 27
72 suits and 27 gowns can be made from available zippers and buttons.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x-y=14
x-1/3y=1/10
-y=14-x
y=-14+x
take out the factors
x-10/30y=3/30
30x-10y=3
substitute
30x-10(-14+x)=3
30x+140-10x=3-140
20x/20=-137/20
x=-6.85
y=-14+(-6.85)
y=-20.85
80 because of you cross multiply 6 times x and 30 times 16 you get 480 and 6 divided by 480 is 80
6/16=30/?
6x=480
Divided by 6
?=80
