4c + 5h = 650 and

5c + 6h = 800 where c are chefs, h are helpers

Start by finding an expression for c

4c + 5h = 650
4c = 650 -5h
c = (650- 5h)/4

Then substitute that into the second equation and solve for a number value for h
5 (650-5h)/4 + 6h = 800
(3250-25h)/4 + 6h = 800
Multiply both sides by 4
3250-25h + 24h = 3200
-h = -50
h = 50

Take that 50 and substitute it into the expression we have for c to get a number value for c

C= 650-5(50)/4
C = 650-250/4
C = 400/4
C= 100

Check your first equations, substituting $50 for the helpers and $100 for the chefs.

4 (100) + 5(50) =
400 + 250 = 650

5(100) + 6(50) =
500 + 300 = 800

What is the solution to the following system?​
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

(2,1,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+3y+6z=9

3(2)+3(1)+6(0)=9

6+3+0=9

6+3=9

9=9

x+3y+2z=5

x(2)+3(1)+2(0)=5

2+3+0=5

2+3=5

5=5

3x+12y+12z=18

3(2)+12(1)+12(0)=18

6+12+0=18

6+12=18

18=18

A triangle has a perimeter of 39 feet. If the three sides of the triangle are n, 4n-2, and 5n-9, what is the length of each side
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The sides are 5,18,16

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of a triangle, we add up all the sides

n +4n-2 + 5n-9 = 39

Combine like terms

10n -11 = 39

Add 11 to each side

10n-11+11 = 39+11

10n = 50

Divide by 10

10n/10 =50/10

n = 5

Now we need to find each side

n = 5

4n-2 = 4(5)-2 = 20-2 =18

5n-9 = 5(5) - =25-9 = 16

The sides are 5,18,16
