Solution,
y = -x-4......(i)
3x + y =- 16.......(ii)
Now,
Substituting the value of y in equation (ii)
or, 3x + (-x-4)= -16
or,3x - x - 4 = -16
or, 2x= -16 +4
or, x = -12/2
: x = -6
Then,
Substituting the value of x in (i) equation;
or,y= -(-6) - 4
or,y= 6 - 4
: y =2
20% of $20 is $4
So add that amount to the price of the meal and you have $24
Since they split the total cost evenly, the price for each is 24 ÷ 2
= <u>$12</u>
<u><em>Answer: x=-17 and -17=x. *The answer should be the negative sign.*</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
subtraction property of equality is subtracting the same number from both sides of an equation does not change the equation.
a-c=b-c
subtract by 5 both sides of an equation.
x+5-5=-12-5
simplify.
12+5=17
17-5=12
17-12=5
x=-17 and -17=x
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
Have a great day!
