A salesperson had 240,000 in sales last year.....which is 60% of the sales she had this year....
so 60% of the sales she had this year = 240,000...
0.60x = 240,000...with x being the sales she had this year
x = 240,000 / 0.60
x = 400,000 <== ur answer

Solve using substitution method x-y=11;3x+10y=-6<br> explain please
Tatiana [17]
Ok so for starters you want to choose an equation and solve for a variable.
So, I am going to choose x from the first equation.
Add y to both sides and you get x=11+y
Next, substitute 11+y for x in the other equation so you get...
2(11+y) +10y=-6
Next distribute the 2 throug the 11 and the y
22+2y+10y=-6
12y=-28
y=-28/12
reduce this fraction to make this easier.
y=-7/3
Now plug in why to either of the equations to find x
x-(-7/3)=11
x+7/3=11
x=11-(7/3)
x=(33/3)-(7/3)
x=26/3
so x = 26/3 and y = -7/3
you can also check to see if this is correct by substituting each of these values into the equations.

Solve the system by substitution:<br> y = -3x + 10<br> y=-3x + 4<br> Please show the steps!
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

x=1, y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x + 10 - first equation

y=-3x + 4 - second equation

rearrange the expression to

-3x-y= -10

3x-y= -4

pick an equation and simplify; lets pick the second equation

3x-y= -4

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-4+y}{3}  

divide 3 by both sides

x= \frac{-4+y}{3} - third equation

substitute the value of x into an equation; lets pick the first equation

-3x-y= -10

-3(\frac{-4+y}{3})- y = -10

simplify. -3 cancels 3 so we are left with

-1(-4+y)-y = -10

simplify

4-y-y= -10

4-2y= -10

subtract 4 from both sides

-2y= -10-4

-2y= -14

divide -2 by both sides

y=7

substitute the value of y, (y=7) in an equation, we are using the second equation

3x-y= -4

3x-7= -4

3x = -4+7

3x= 3

divide 3 by both sides

x=1

so the answer is x=1, y=7
