Answer:
Each steamer costs $2.5 and each party hat costs $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of 1 steamer =x
Let the cost of 1 party hat =y
Three rolls of streamers and 15 party hats cost $30
Two rolls of streamers and four party hats for $11.
We solve the two equations simultaneously.
Multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3
6x+30y=60
6x+12y=33
Suntract
18y=27
y=1.5
From 6x+30y=60
6x+30(1.5)=60
6x+45=60
6x=60-45=15
x=2.5
Since x=2.5 and y=1.5
Each steamer costs $2.5 and each party hat costs $1.5
Answer: 9/10
Explanation:
3/4 divide by 5/6
= 3/4 x 6/5
= 18/20
= 9/10
When you graph the equations, both equations represent the same line. If a system has no solution, it is said to be inconsistent . The graphs of the lines do not intersect, so the graphs are parallel and there is no solution.
