Answer:
Cost of small box = $13
Cost of large box = $18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of small box of candy = $s
And the cost of large candy box = $b
Beth sold 9 small and 10 large boxes of candies for $297.
9s + 10b = 297 -----(1)
Sarah sold 8 small and 5 large boxes of candies for $194.
8s + 5b = 194 -------(2)
Multiply equation (2) by 2 then subtract equation (1) from (2).
2(8s + 5b) - (9s + 10b) = (2×194) - 297
16s + 10b - 9s - 10b = 388 - 297
7s = 91 ⇒ s = $13
From equation (2),
(8×13) + 5b = 194
104 + 5b = 194
5b = 90
b = $18
Answer: (-2, 8)
Explanation:
Plug x = -2 into the second equation. Isolate y.
5x+3y = 14
5(-2)+3y = 14
-10+3y = 14
3y = 14+10
3y = 24
y = 24/3
y = 8
We have x = -2 lead to y = 8.
Therefore, the ordered pair (x,y) = (-2,8) is the solution to this system.

Answer:
, 
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>
I will use the elimination method.</h3>
We want to make the X's the same:
Because the signs of the X's are the same we subtract the 2 equations to make:
(I put the second one on top of the 1st)
So:
Substitute y into either equation 1 or 2:
(I chose equation 1)
So:
