Answer:
x = -2
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given two equations
1. 7x + 10y = 36
2. y = 2x + 9
Substitute 2x + 9 for y in equation 1.
We have
7x + 10y = 36
7x + 10(2x + 9) = 36
Distribute 10 into (2x + 9)
We have
7x + 10 x 2x + 10 x 9 = 36
7x + 20x + 90 = 36
27x + 90 = 36
Subtract 90 from both sides to eliminate 90 on the left side
27x + 90 - 90 = 36 - 90
27x = -54
Divide both sides by 27 to isolate x
27x/27 = -54/27
x = -2
Now substitute -2 into either equation to get y
Using equation 2, we have
y = 2x + 9
= 2 x -2 + 9
= -4 + 9
= 5
x = -2
y = 5

Answer: B) A = 750(1.04)ⁿ
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The formula for compounded annually is: A = P(1 + r)ⁿ where
- A (amount accrued) = <em>unknown</em>
- P (amount invested) = $750
- r (interest rate) = 4% -->(0.04)
- t (time in years) = <em>unknown</em>
A = 750(1 + 0.04)ⁿ
= 750(1.04)ⁿ
A graphing calculator or spreadsheet program can do this for you. Below is a plot from the Desmos on-line graphing calculator.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
S=student cost; T=teacher cost
.
32S+3T=$127 . Multiply this by 2.
64S+6T=$254 Subtract this below
.
25S+2T=$97.50 . Multiply this by 3.
75S+6T=$292.50
64S+6T=$254 . Subtract this (from above.)
.
11S=$38.50
S=$3.50
ANSWER 1: Student tickets cost $3.50.
.
32S+3T=$127
32($3.50)+3T=$127
$112+3T=$127
3T=$15
T=$5.00
ANSWER 2: Teacher tickets cost $5.00.
.
CHECK:
25S+2T=$97.50
25($3.50)+2($5.00)=$97.50
$87.50+$10.00=$97.50
$97.50=$97.50
