Answer:

(7, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y = 19 → (1)

3x - 2y = 19 → (2)

multiplying (1) by 2 and (2) by 5 then adding will eliminate y

4x + 10y = 38 → (3)

15x - 10y = 95 → (4)

add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate y

19x + 0 = 133

19x = 133 ( divide both sides by 19 )

x = 7

substitute x = 7 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

substituting into (1)

2(7) + 5y = 19

14 + 5y = 19 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

5y = 5 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 1

solution is (7, 1 )

A lawn mower cost $470 when new and is expected to last 10 years. What will it be worth in 7.5 years? (Assume the lawn mower has

USPshnik [31]

Answer: 117.5
Explanation: Assuming that after 10 years the lawn mower would have a value of 0. We can evenly divide $470 by the amount of years.
$750/10 = $75
We would then multiply 75*7.5 years to then realize the value lost over that amount of time would be $352.5, subtracting that from the original value of $470 would then be 117.5

hram777 [196]

Answer:

She needs to buy 3 such containers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Saledo wants to buy $1\frac{1}{2}$ quarts of whipping cream.

Now, $1\frac{1}{2}$ quarts = $\frac{3}{2}$ quarts = $\frac{3}{2} \times 2 = 3$ pints.

Since we know that 1 US liquid quart = 1 US liquid pints.

If the whipping cream is sold in only 1 - pint containers, then she needs to buy 3 such containers. ( Answer )
