Substitution doesn't work for this, but elimination does.
-6x-8y=-20 +6( x+6y=-6)
-6x-8y=-20 + 6x+36y=-36
-6x and 6x cancel each other, add -8 and 36 to get 28, and -20 and -36 to get -56.
28y=-56
divide by 28 on both sides.
Y= -2
Then substitute y into one of the equations.
x+6(-2)=-6
x-12=-6
x=6
The ordered pair is (6,-2).
The integers are x - 1, x and x + 1
x - 1 + x + x + 1 = 186
3x = 186
x = 186/3 = 62
Therefore, the numbers are 61, 62 and 63
The square footage of the room is length times width...in this case 16 x 12 =192 then divide that by 7 and it can accommodate 27 people.

If you would like to write and solve a system of equations that represent the situation above, you can do this using the following steps:
s ... number of songs
m ... number of movies
$55.00 = $1.25 * s + $2.75 * m
55 = 1.25 * s + 2.75 * m
26 songs and movies = s + m
26 = s + m
s = 26 - m
55 = 1.25 * s + 2.75 * m
55 = 1.25 * (26 - m) + 2.75 * m
55 = 1.25 * 26 - 1.25 * m + 2.75 * m
55 - 32.5 = 1.5 * m
22.5 = 1.5 * m
m = 22.5 / 1.5 = 15 movies
s = 26 - m = 26 - 15 = 11 songs
The correct result would be 15 movies and 11 songs.
