Unit 5: Systems of Equations & Inequalities Homework 2: Solving Systems by Substitution

Mathematics
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
6 0

By solving the system by substitution, we got the solutions:

x = 2/3, y = 8/3.

<h3>Solving the system of equations:</h3>

I guess we need to solve problem number 5, so let's do that.

Here we have the system of equations:

y = x + 2

3x + 3y = 6

To solve it by substitution, we need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations and then replace that in the other equation.

For example, here we can see that "y" is already isolated in the first equation, so we can use that and replace it in the second equation.

3x + 3y = 6

3x + 3*(y = x + 2) = 6

3x + 3*(x + 2) = 6

Now we have an equation that only depends on x, so we can solve it:

3x + 3x + 2 = 6

6x + 2 = 6

6x = 6 - 2 = 4

x = 4/6 = 2/3.

Now we can use the first equation to find the value of y:

y = x + 2 = 2/3 + 2 = 2/3 + 6/3 = 8/3.

Then the solution is:

x = 2/3 and y = 8/3.

A music store buys compact discs for $12 each and sells them for $15 each. What is the percent of markup?
4vir4ik [10]
If we take 12 to be the 100%, now 15 - 12, so is 3 bucks up for the retail price, what is 3 off 12 in percentage then?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;amount&\%\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;12&100\\&#10;3&p&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{12}{3}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{3\cdot 100}{12}

Suppose that a bike rents for 50php plus 8php per hour. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that models this situation.
alexira [117]

Answer: C(x) = (8 php)*x + 50 php.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a linear equation:

y = a*x + b

a is the slope.

x is the variable

b is the y-intercept.

In this case, we have

The rent is 50 php fixed, plus 8 php per hour.

Then we will pay the 50php only one time, and it does not depend on the number of hours that we rent, then this is the y-intercept.

then if we rent the bike for x hours, we will pay a plus of x*8 php.

Then the total cost for x hours, C(x), will be

C(x) = (8 php)*x + 50 php.

Then the slope is 8 php, and the y-intercept is 50 php.
