Answer:
x=3
y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 6-y
-plug in (6-y) into first equation
2(6-y)+3y = 15
12-2y+3y=15
-2y+3y = 3
y=3
x=6-3
x=3
double check:
(2*3) + (3*3) = 6 + 9 = 15
3 + 3 = 6
Jamal and Steve finished the same amount of homework because 5/6 is the same as 10/12
Answer:
a. The Mexican Airline offers a better deal for 9 students to travel.
b. 10 students
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The Mexican Air airline offers a round trip airfare of $250 per person.
So, for 9 students the fare will be total $(250 × 9) = $2250
Now, the Fiesta airline offers a round trip airfare of $150 per person if the club agrees to pay a one-time group rate processing fee of $1000.
So, for 9 students the total fare will be = $[1000 + (150 × 9)] =$2350.
Therefore, the Mexican Airline offers a better deal for 9 students to travel. (Answer)
b. Let for x students both the airline offers the same total costs.
Then we can write
250x = 1000 + 150x {From the conditions given}
⇒ 100x = 1000
⇒ x = 10
So, if the number of students is 10, then only both the airlines will take same fare. (Answer)
Answer:
y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both by 1/4
x = 1 when y = 32/3
When x = 1 1/8 = 9/8
y = 32/3 x 9/8
y = 12
