For 61 you can change it to √25/√49. √25=5 and √49=7 so it would simplify to 5/7.
Let the steaks = X and the salmon = y.
Set up two equations:
15x + 18y = 559.81
19x + 9y = 583.66
Now using the elimination method:
Multiply the second equation by -2, then add the equations together.
(15x+18y=559.81)
−2(19x+9y=583.66)
Becomes:
15x+18y=559.81
−38x−18y=−1167.32
Add these equations to eliminate y:
−23x=−607.51
Divide both sides by -23 to solve for x:
x= -607.51 = -23 = 26.413478
Now you have the cost for a steak.
To solve for the cost of the salmon, replace x with the value in the first equation and solve for y.
15(26.413478) + 18y = 559.91
396.202174 + 18y = 559.81
Subtract 396.202174 from both sides:
18y = 163.607826
Divide both sides by 18:
y = 163.607826 / 18
y = 9.089324
Round both x and Y to the nearest cent:
X (Steaks) =$26.41
Y (Salmon) = $9.09
Answer: The number is 15
Step-by-step explanation: basically the equation you should solve is
(x)+(2x)+(2x+7)=82
5x+7=82
5x= -7+82
5x=75
5/5x=75/5
x=15
Answer:
5 stars? Answer down below
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b=350 => a=350 - b
3a + 5b = 1450
3(350-b)+b=1450
1050-3b+5b=1450
2b=400
b=200
a=150
