Answer: the cost of one daylilies is $4
the cost of one ivy is $9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of one daylilies.
Let y represent the cost of one ivy.
Nicole and Kim bought their supplies from the same store. Nicole spent $99 on 9 daylilies and 7 pots of ivy. This means that
9x + 7y = 99 - - - - - - - -1
Kim spent $144 on 9 daylilies and 12 pots of ivy. This means that
9x + 12y = 144 - - - - - - - - -2
We will eliminate x by subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes
- 5y = - 45
y = - 45/-5 = 9
Substituting y = 9 into equation 2, it becomes
9x + 12 × 9 = 144
9x + 108 = 144
9x = 144 - 108 = 36
x = 36/9 = 4
Answer:
y-13
Step-by-step explanation:
y-3/3+12
because of order of ops you do 3/3 first
y-1+12
1+12 is 13 so
y-13
Substitute each value of x, calculate, and if the answer equals to the given value of y, then the point does lie on y = 2x
Point A (1, -1)
y = 2(1)
y = 1
The answer is not y = -1 as given in the question, hence point A does not lie on y = 2x
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Point B (1, 3)
y = 2(1)
y = 2
The answer is not y = 3 as required, hence point B does not lie on y = 2x
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Point C(-2, -4)
y = 2(-2)
y = -4
The answer is y = -4 as required. Hence, point C does lie on y = 2x
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Point D(-2, 4)
y = 2(-2)
y = -4
The answer is not y = 4 as required, so point D does not lie on y = 2x.
