Rearrange: 2y = 6 -3x
2y = - 3x + 6
y = -1.5x + 3
Now, substitute, perpendicular lines have the same gradient so:
-1 = -1.5 (2) + c
- 1 = -3 + c
2 = c

equation for new line: y = 1.5x + 2

At a farmers market, oranges sell for $5 per bag and apples sell for $3 per
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

A. 3 bags of oranges, 4 bags of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

If O is number of bags of oranges and A is number of bags of apples:

O + A = 7

5O + 3A = 27

We can solve this system of equations with either substitution or elimination.  I like to use substitution, but you can use whichever you prefer.

O = 7 − A

5 (7 − A) + 3A = 27

35 − 5A + 3A = 27

35 − 2A = 27

8 = 2A

A = 4

O = 7 − A

O = 3

Teresa bought 3 bags of oranges and 4 bags of apples.

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>

x - 5y = -40

18x - 5y = 45

<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>

18x - 5y = 45

  1. Multiply both sides by -1:                     -18x + 5y = -45

<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>

x - 5y = -40

-18x + 5y = -45

<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

<em>Elimination</em>

  1. Combine equations:                    -17x = -85
  2. Divide -17 on both sides:             x = 5

<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Define equation:                    x - 5y = -40
  2. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                       5 - 5y = -40
  3. Isolate <em>y</em> term:                        -5y = -45
  4. Isolate <em>y</em>:                                 y = 9
