Y = 5 - 3x....so sub in 5 - 3x for y in the other equation

5x - 4y = -3
5x - 4(5 - 3x) = -3.....distribute the -4 thru the parenthesis
5x - 20 + 12x = -3...add 20 to both sides
5x + 12x = -3 + 20...combine like terms
17x = 17...divide both sides by 17
x = 17/17
x = 1

now sub 1 in for x into either of the original equations to find y
y = 5 - 3x
y = 5 - 3(1)
y = 5 - 3
y = 2

check...
5x - 4y = -3
5(1) - 4(2) = -3
5 - 8 = -3
-3 = -3 (correct)

so ur solution is (1,2)

Danielle’s chemistry professor has a complicated grading system. Each lab counts once and each test counts as two labs. At the e
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

92

Step-by-step explanation:

Lab Scores are 84, 81, and 93

Test Scores are 89 and 94

Each lab counts once and each test counts as two labs. At the end of the semester there is a final lab that counts as three regular labs.

Total Number of Labs= (3X1)+(2X2)+(1X3) =3+4+3 =10

To recieve an A(90), the average of her scores must be 90.

Let her final lab score =b

Refer to the attached diagram

Total Score=624+3b

For her average =90

\frac{624+3b}{10}=90

Cross multiplying

624+3b =90 X 10

624+3b =900

3b =900-624

3b =276

Dividing both sides by 3

b= 92

She must score 92 in her final lab to receive an A.
