Answer:

x=3; y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5y=16

   -5y   -5y

2x=-5y+16

/2   /2   /2

x=-\frac{5}{2}y+8

*substitute*

3(-\frac{5}{2}y+8)-5y=-1

-7\frac{1}{2}y+24-5y=-1

-12\frac{1}{2}y+24=-1

        -24  -24

-12.5y=-25

/-12.5    /-12.5

y=2

*replace*

2x+5(2)=16

2x+10=16

    -10   -10

2x=6

/2  /2

x=3

*solve to verify*

1. 2(3)+5(2)=16

6+10=16

16=16

2. 3(3)-5(2)=-1

9-10=-1

-1=-1

Darya [45]

Answer:

I dont know But maybe the answer is No

Step-by-step explanation:

0.3 is 30% and if 1/10 is 10% then 2/20 must be 10% because 5% is 1/20

so maybe 3/20 is only 15%

I hope this helps :)

You have two coupons for a store. Coupon 1 is for $10 dollars off. Coupon 2 is for 15% off. Coupon 2 is for 15% off. You can onl
patriot [66]

Answer:

Purchases greater than 66.67 dollars should use coupon 2, while purchases between 20 dollars and 66.67 should use coupon 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coupon 1 must be used as long as those 10 dollars represent more money than 15% of coupon 2.

For example, if the purchase is the minimum of $ 20, 10 dollars represents half of the purchase, therefore in this case it is better to use coupon 1.

In this case, coupon 2 would only be a discount of 3 dollars (20 * 0.15).

So when from what value would it be better to use coupon 2, it would have to be calculated when it is worth more than 10 dollars.

10 = x * 0.15

x = 10 / 0.15

x = 66.67

That is to say that from the purchases greater than 66.67 dollars, coupon 2 would have a discount equivalent to 10 dollars or more.
