Answer:
D. (-3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations have different coefficients for x and y, so will have one solution. The solutions offered are easily tested in either equation.
Using (x, y) = (-2, -3):
x = y -1 ⇒ -2 = -3 -1 . . . . False
Using (x, y) = (-3, -2):
x = y -1 ⇒ -3 = -2 -1 . . . .True
2x = 3y ⇒ 2(-3) = 3(-2) . . . . True
The solution is (-3, -2).

If you'd like to solve the set of equations, substitution for x works nicely.
2(y -1) = 3y
2y -2 = 3y . . eliminate parentheses
-2 = y . . . . . . subtract 2y
x = -2 -1 = -3
The solution is (x, y) = (-3, -2).
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter is 284 means the sum of the side measurements is 284.
That is, we have to solve:
Combine like terms:
Simplify:
Subtract 12 on both sides:
Simplify:
Divide both sides by 34:
Simplify:
Answer:
10 games
Step-by-step explanation:
Let C be cost and x be number of games
Arcade A: C = 5 + 0.6x
Arcade B: C = 7 + 0.4x
for both arcades to be the same price, Both C's must be equal, hence we equate the right side of both equations:
5 + 0.6x = 7 + 0.4x (subtract 5 fromboth sides)
0.6x = 7 + 0.4x - 5
0.6x = 2 + 0.4x (subtract 0.4x from both sides)
0.6x - 0.4x = 2
0.2x = 2 (divide both sides by 0.2)
x = 2 / (0.2)
x = 10
