Answer:
trees cost $15
Shrub cost $7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Rita paid $82 for 5 trees and 1 shrub
5x+y= 82---------1
Lilly bought 2 trees and 1 shrub for $37
2x+y= 37----------2
from 1
y= 82-5x
put the value of y in 2
2x+82-5x= 37
2x-5x= 37-82
-3x=-45
x= 45/3
x=$15
put the value of x in 1
5(x)+y= 82
5*15+y=82
75+y=82
y=82-75
y=$7
Hence, trees cost $15
Shrub cost $7
The solution to system is x = 0 and y = -1
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>
-8x + 2y = -2 ----------- eqn 1
4x + 4y = -4 ---------- eqn 2
We have to solve the system of equations
We can solve the equations by elimination method
<em><u>Multiply eqn 2 by 2</u></em>
8x + 8y = -8 ------ eqn 3
<em><u>Add eqn 1 and eqn 3</u></em>
-8x + 2y = -2
8x + 8y = -8
( + ) ---------------
0x + 2y + 8y = -2 - 8
10y = -10
Divide both sides by 10
y = -1
<em><u>Substitute y = -1 in eqn 1</u></em>
-8x + 2(-1) = -2
-8x - 2 = -2
-8x = -2 + 2
x = 0
Thus the solution to system is x = 0 and y = -1
Answer:
Anyone have all the answers?
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm pretty sure the answer is 5 because I did 50% of 50 which is 5
To find the answer just substitute the values of P and Q into the equation and evaluate following order of operations
