Answer:
{x,y} = {-2,-3}
Step-by-step explanation:
System of Linear Equations entered :
[1] -9x + 4y = 6
[2] 9x + 5y = -33
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
4y - 9x = 6 5y + 9x = -33
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] 5y = -9x - 33
[2] y = -9x/5 - 33/5
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] -9x + 4•(-9x/5-33/5) = 6
[1] -81x/5 = 162/5
[1] -81x = 162
// Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] 81x = - 162
[1] x = - 2
// By now we know this much :
x = -2
y = -9x/5-33/5
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = -(9/5)(-2)-33/5 = -3
H = hrs she worked
p = phone calls she answered
h x 10 + p x .25 = maggies earnings
Part A
h x 10 + 60 x .25 = 115
Part B
h x 10 + 15 = 115 (multiplied 60 x .25)
h x10 = 100 (subtracted 15 from each side of the equation)
h = 10 (divided 10 into each side)
Part C
10 hrs
Hope this helps
If you need to solve for y
10y-12=4
10y=12+4
10y=16
y=16/10=8/5=1 3/5 or 1.6
