Answer:
(-4,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to find a common multiple to use to add and find the system of equations. We need to eliminate one of the variables in order to solve.
Since 5 * 3 = 15, and 3 * -5 = 15, -15x and 15x will cancel each other out. Therefore x will be eliminated.
Before:
5x + 2y = -16
3x + 7y = 2
After:
15x + 6y = -48 <----------Now we solve for y
-15x + -35y = -10
+----------------------
-29y = -58
-29 -29
y = 2
Now what we do is we choose and equation and solve for x, since it is still unknown. Any equation is fine but I will choose the second one since it has easy numbers.
3x + 7y = 2
3x + 7(2) = 2
3x + 14 = 2
-14 -14
----------------------
3x = -12
3 3
x = -4
Therefore our final answer is (-4,2)
Answer:
Each student's contribution = $17
Each student will save $ 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of the block of 5 tickets is $85.00.
Dividing the $ 85 by 5 would give the equal amount each would have to contribute.
$ 85/5=$ 17
Each will have to pay $ 17 to buy a block of 5 tickets for $85.00.
We can find the amount each will save by subtracting the amount to be shared by the 5 students from the amount paid by the 4 students.
They will save
$ 20-$17=
$3
Each of them will save $3 if they can get a fifth person to join them and the 5 people equally divide the price of the 5-ticket block.
You would have to make them all one form that is the same, for example if you wanted to find out if 80%, 0.75, 1/2 are the same you would have to change them into the same form. If you wanted to make them all decimals it would be 0.08, 0.75, 0.5, if you wanted to make them all percents it would be 80%, 75%, 50%, you wanted them all of be a fraction it would be 4/5, 3/4, and 1/2. I hope explained this well and this helped :)
