A. 12*x + 2*y = 90
6*x + 2*y = 60
To write system of equation you just need to sum all solo and ensemble acts and make it equal to how much they will last for.
B. Here we can multiply second equation with negative 1 and add it to first equation.
6x = 30
x = 5
now we replace x in any of 2 equations to get y.
30+2y = 60
2y = 30
y=15
Solo acts are 5 minutes long and ensemble acts are 15 minutes long
Answer:
44 and 110
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the 2 numbers = 2 : 5 = 2x : 5x ( x is a multiplier ) , thus
difference = 5x - 2x = 3x , then
3x = 66 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 22
Thus
2x = 2 × 22 = 44
5x = 5 × 22 = 110
The 2 numbers are 44 and 110
