Answer:
Thy bought 150 Sweatshirts (x) and 250 tshirts (y)
Step-by-step explanation:
35x + 25y = 11500
x + y = 400
-25 (x + y = 400) Multiply by -25 to get the y's to disappear when you add the two equations together
-25x - 25y = 10000
<u> 35x + 25y = 11500 </u>
10x =1500
x = 150
Plug 150 in either equation for x to find y
150 + y = 400
y = 250
Answer:
The short answer is there isn’t.
Start by writing each of these as an expression:
x * y = 60
x + y = 7
Next, solve each for the same variable; in this case, y:
(x * y) / x = 60 / x
.: y = 60 / x
(x + y) - x = 7 - x
.: y = 7 - x
Next, replace y of the second expression to the first
y = 60 / x & y = 7 - x
.: 7 - x = 60 / x
Now, solve for x:
(7 - x) * x = (60 / x) * x
.: x * 7 - x^2 = 60
This is quadratic, so write it in the form of ax2 + bx + x = 0
(-1)x^2 + (7)x + (-60) = 0
.: a = -1, b = 7, c = -60
Finally solve for b:
x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4*a*c)) / 2a
.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(7^2 - 4*-1*-60)) / (2 * -1)
.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(49 - 240)) / -2
.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(-191)) / -2
The square root of a negative value is imaginary and thus there’s no real answer to this problem.

Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 9 = 19
add 9 to both sides
7x = 28
divide by 7
x = 4
