Please help with steps??? Question: Find the solution for a system of equations by elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
Margaret [11]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -84, y = -58

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3y = 6 --- Equation 1

Equation 1×5: <em>10x</em> - 15y = 30 --- Equation 2

5x + 7y = -14 --- Equation 3

Equation 3×2: <em>10x</em> + 14y = -28 --- Equation 4

<u>I will eliminate 10x. </u>

Equation 4-2:

10x - 15y - 10x + 14y = 30-(-28)

-y = 30+28

   = 58

y = -58

Substitute y  =-58 into Equation 1.

2x - 3y = 6

2x - 3(-58) = 6

2x - (-174) = 6

2x + 174 = 6

Find 2x.

2x = 6-174

    = -168

Find x.

x = -168 ÷ 2

x = -84

<h3>What is a profit?</h3>


The profit is given by the <u>subtraction of the revenue by the total costs</u>.

In this problem:

  • For the dozen cookies, she earned a revenue of 6 dollars.
  • In all, the total cost of the 12 cookies was of 0.5 + 0.7 + 0.4 + 0.4 = 2 dollars.
