Answer: x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
- 2x-3= - 4x+9
- 2x+4x = -9 + 3
- 6x = -9 + 3
- 6x/6 = -6/6
- x = -1
Answer: B. (-1,3) and (2,6)
Step-by-step explanation:
I just found the points they met on the graph
Answer:
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
y= $25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the cost of a flashlight
Let y = the cost of a sleeping bag
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
Multiply the first equation by -5
-5(3x +4y) = -5*118
-15x -20y = -590
Multiply the second equation by 3
3(5x+6y) =3*180
15x + 18y = 540
Add the modified equations together.
We are using elimination to eliminate the variable x
-15x -20y = -590
15x + 18y = 540
----------------------------
-2y = -50
Divide by -2
-2y/-2 = -50/-2
y =25
Each sleeping bag costs $25
Let "a" and "s" represent the costs of advance and same-day tickets, respectively. Your problem statement gives you two relations.
.. a + s = 35 . . . . . the combined cost of one of each is 35
.. 15a +40s = 900 . . total paid for this combination of tickets was 900
There are many ways to solve these equations. You've probably been introduced to "substitution" and "elimination" (or "addition"). Using substitution for "a", we have
.. a = 35 -s
.. 15(35 -s) +40s = 900 . . substitute for "a"
.. 25s +525 = 900 . . . . . . . simplify
.. 25s = 375 . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 525
.. s = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 25
Then
.. a = 35 -15 = 20
The price of an advance ticket was 20.
The price of a same-day ticket was 15.
