Answer: x = 4 , y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Going by the Cramer's rule , we first determine the determinant by dealing with only the coefficients of x and y in the 2 x 2 matrix.
2x - 3y = 17
5x + 4y = 8
2 -3
5 4, going by the rule now, we now have
(2 x 4) - (5 x -3)
8 + 15
= 23.
Now to find the value of x , replace the constants with the coefficient of x and divide by he determinants.
17 -3
8 4
---------------
2 -3
5 4
( 17 x 4 ) - ( 8 x -3 )
---------------------------
23
= 68 + 24
------------
23
= 92/23
= 4.
x = 4
Now to find y, just repeat the process by replacing the coefficient of y with the constants.
2 17
5 8
-----------
2 -3
5 4
( 2 x 8 ) - ( 5 x 17 )
-----------------------
23
16 - 85
---------
23
= -69/23
= -3
y = -3.
check
substitute for the values in any of the equations above.
2(4) - 3(-3)
8 + 9
= 17
The 15% is 1.8
All you have to do is multiply 12 by .15 to get the answer, which is 1.80
Answer:
Number of student tickets were sold = 409
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of tickets sold = 771
I.e Students ticket (S) + Non students ticket(N S) = 771
Total amount to be paid for tickets = $ 3037
Amount paid by students per tickets = $3
Amount paid by non-students per tickets = $5
So, according to question
S + NS = 771
3 S + 5 NS = 3037
Solve both equations
5 S + 5 NS = 771 × 5
3 S + 5 NS = 3037
so ,
(5 S + 5 NS) - (3 S + 5 NS ) = 3855 - 3037
Or, 2 S = 818
I.e S = 
= 409
Hence, The number of student tickets were sold = 409 Answer
