C -3/2
Just multiply the second equation by -3/2
this will make the y term = -3/4y
so adding will eliminate the y terms.
This is how I would solve it:
1st # = x 4(x+1)=3x+18
2nd # = x+1 4x+4=3x+18
4x=3x+14
x=14
To check: 15x4=60; 60-42=18. <u>1st # = 14; 2nd # = 15.</u>
Answer:
r= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
30 - 20 = 10
They probably want 880 pesos, since they asked you do intermediate rounding
but a more accurate answer would be
883.20 pesos
To combine the functions, you'd substitute in 2.76r for y in 0.16y. This would give you 0.16(2.76r), which simplifies to 0.4416r, but they want you round this to the nearest hundredth, so its really 0.44r. Substitute in the 2000 for r and you get 0.44 * 2000 which is 880 pesos

This is not possible, as -6 is not equal to -4.
