Answer:

Pumkins $7 and Watermelons $5

Step-by-step explanation:

let pumkins be P and watermelons be W s0

5P+20W=135 and 10P+16W=150

express first equation in terms of P

5P+20W=135

5P=135-20W (divide equation by 5)

P=27-4W

now express the second equation using the new P value

10P+16W=150

10(27-4W)+16W=150

270-40W+16W=150

120=24W

W=5

now plug in w value and solve for p

5P+20(5)=135

P=7

Find the X COORDINATE OF THE intersection of 9x - 6y = 12 and 3x + 2y =8
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a System of linear equations, the solution of the system is the point (x,y) in which the lines intersect, where "x" is the x-coordinate and "y" is the y-coordinate.

Having the following System of equations:

\left \{ {{9x - 6y = 12} \atop {3x + 2y =8}} \right.

You can use the Elimination method to find the value of "x":

-Multiply the second equation by 3.

- Add the equations.

- Solve for "x".

Then, you get:

\left \{ {{9x - 6y = 12} \atop {9x +6y =24}} \right.\\.......................\\18x=36\\\\x=\frac{36}{18}\\\\x=2
