Answer:

x = 4 , y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = 14 → (1)

x + y = 5 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

- 2x - 2y = - 10 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into (2) and evaluate for y

4 + y = 5 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = 1

A coach purchases 47 hats for his players and their families at a total cost of $302. The cost of a small hat is $5.50. A medium
bazaltina [42]
First, we define variables:
 x: small hat
 y: medium hat
 z: large hat
 We now write the system of equations:
 x + y + z = 47
 5.50x + 6y + 7z = 302
 -3x + y = 0
 We can write the system in matrix form as:
 Ax = b
 Where,
 A = [1  1  1; 5.50  6  7; -3  1  0]
 b = [47;  302;  0]
 x = [x;  y ;  z]
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 6
 y = 18
 z = 23
 Answer:
 
the coach did purchase 23 large hats

Answer:

X + Y = 1 ------1

X - 2y = 4 ------2

Solving by substitution method

X = 4 + 2y -----3

Putting the value of X in equation 1

4 + 2y + y = 1

4 + 3y = 1

3y = 1 - 4

3y = (-3)

y = (-3) /3

<h3>y = (-1) </h3>

Putting value of y in equation 3

X = 4 + 2(-1)

X = 4 - 2

<h3>X = 2 </h3>

Maslowich

Step-by-step explanation:

a < (a + b)/2 < b

Solve the first inequality.

a < (a + b)/2

2a < a + b

a < b

Solve the second inequality.

(a + b)/2 < b

a + b < 2b

a < b

Both inequalities are true.  Therefore, a < (a + b)/2 < b.
