Answer:
Hey!
Your answer is $118.75!
Step-by-step explanation: How did I get this?
<u>STEP 1:</u> So we know that for a ton of rock costs us $47.50...
To get 2 tons all we have to do is to MULTIPLY $47.50 by 2...
<em><u>(47.50 x 2 = 95)</u></em>
<u>STEP 2: </u>So for $95, you will get 2 tons of rock!
Now to get the .5 tons of rock in price form, we have to get the price of the whole 2.5 tons and DIVIDE BY 2
<em><u>(47.50 ÷ 2 = 23.75)</u></em>
<u>STEP 3:</u> So now we have the costs for 2 tons and the price for HALF a ton.
What we do now is easy...we ADD THE VALUES TOGTHER!
<em><u>(95 + 23.75 = $118.75)</u></em>
The result of $118.75 after adding them together is the PRICE OF 2 TONS!
<u>I HOPE THIS HELPED YOU!</u>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-10 ( y-4) + 3y = 5 <--- substitute the value of x into first equation
-10y + 40 + 3y = 5
-7y + 40 = 5
-7y = -35
y= 5
x = 5 - 4
x = 1
