Question

Please please help me!!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

(12, 487)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3.7x + 442 ----› Eqn. 1

y = 14.4x + 312 ----› Eqn. 2

Substitute y = (3.7x + 442) into eqn. 2.

y = 14.4x + 312 ----› Eqn. 2

3.7x + 442 = 14.4x + 312

Collect like terms

3.7x - 14.4x = -442 + 312

-10.7x = -130

Divide both sides by -10.7

x = 12.1495327

Substitute x = 12.1495327 into eqn. 1.

y = 3.7x + 442 ----› Eqn. 1

y = 3.7(12.1495327) + 442

y = 486.953271

The solution to the system is rounded to the nearest integer:
