I am all yours, just reply with the expression.
To solve problems like this you can either graph or solve mathematically. To do the ladder we need to solve for one variable at a time. So lets cancel one variable out.
Multiply equation 1 by 2
This will give 4x-2y=14
Now we can get rid of y by subtracting 2 from 1
This will give x=9
Plug back in to either equation, i will use equation 2
3(9)-2y=5 simplify
-2y=-22 solve
Y=11
Answer:
He must work for 115 hours to save at least $1900.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that you'll use is 65+16x=1900, with x being hours. I found the answer by using 65+16(115)=1905, which is the closest number you'll get before starting to use half hours and such.
Given

To find a solution for the linear equation, the first step is to write the equation in slope-intercept form:
-Pass the x-term to the right side of the equation by applying the opposite operation to both sides of the equal sign:

-Divide both sides by -2:

Once you have expressed the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, replace it with any value for x and calculate the corresponding value of y, for example, x=2

One solution for the linear equation is x=2 and y=-6, you can check the solution by replacing the values on the original equation, with both values the result should be 8:

As you can see the values are a valid solution for the linear equation.
So the solution is:
