Mathematics
1 answer:
quester [9]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(6,-9) is a solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each equation by the value that makes the coefficients of y opposite.

(-1) · (7x+2y) = (-1) · (24)

8x+2y = 30

Simplify.

-7x-2y = -24

8x+2y = 30

        x = 6

-7 · x - 2y = -24

-7 · 6 - 2y = -24

-42 - 2y = -24

      -2y = 18

         y = -9

A storekeeper has two kinds of flour, one selling for 65 cents per pound, and the other selling for 95 cents per pound. How many
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The amount of 65 cents per pound flour to use is 40 pounds and the amount of 95 cents per pound flour to use is 60 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> amount of 65 cents per pound flour to use

y----> amount of 95 cents per pound flour to use

we know that

x+y=100 ----> y=100-x ----> equation A

0.65x+0.95y=0.83(100) ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

0.65x+0.95(100-x)=0.83(100)

Solve for x

0.65x+95-0.95x=83

0.95-0.65x=95-83

0.30x=12

x=40\ lb

Find the value of y

y=100-40=60\ lb

therefore

The amount of 65 cents per pound flour to use is 40 pounds and the amount of 95 cents per pound flour to use is 60 pounds

Write a Let" statement for the unknown, write an equation, and solve the equation. 11. Jane bought a number of records for $7 ea
Advocard [28]

Let n = number of records.

Each record costs $7, so n records cost 7n.

She then spent $3, so the total spent is 3n + 3.

She spent a total of $24, so 3n + 3 must equal 24. That gives us the following equation.

7n + 3 = 24

Subtract 3 from both sides.

7n = 21

Divide both sides by 7.

n = 3

Answer: She bought 3 records.
