Answer:
one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets start to solve the question
- The 1st equation x - y = -4
- The 2nd equation 3x + y = 8
- We will use the elimination method to solve this system of equation
∵ x - y = -4 ⇒ (1)
∵ 3x + y = 8 ⇒ (2)
- Add the two equation (1) and (2) to eliminate y
∴ x + 3x = -4 + 8
∴ 4x = 4
- Divide both sides by 4
∴ x = 1
- Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or equation (2) to find
the value of y
- We will use equation (1)
∴ 1 - y = -4
Subtract 1 from both sides
∴ -y = -5
- Divide both sides by -1
∴ y = 5
∴ The solution is (1 , 5)
* The system has one solution
16 pieces may be cut. This is because we need to divide 36 by 2 and 1/4 to find how many pieces hat can be cut. First, we need to change everything into a fraction (or improper fraction). 2 and 1/4 = 9/4 (if you need help trying to find out how to get this, just ask). Then, since we are doing division, we flip the 9/4 around to get 4/9. 36 times (it's not dividing anymore since we flipped the 9/4) 4/9 = 16 pieces. I hope this helps! :D

Answer:
$10.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a system of equations, so 3c + 2m = 7 and 2c + 4m = 8, where c = the cost of coffees, and m = cost of muffins
To solve multiply the first equation by -2(3c + 2m=7) so you get -6c -4m = -14 now add the two equations
-6c - 4m = -14
2c + 4m = 8 notice that -6c + 2c = -4c and -4m + 4m cancels, then -14+8=-6
so we have -4c = -6 so c = $1.50
To solve for m, substitute c = 1.50 so 3(1.50) + 2m = 7, so solve for m so
4.5 + 2m = 7, 2m = 2.5, so m = $1.25
So now solve the final problem 6(1.50) + 1(1.25) = $10.25
