Answer:
12 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
21:7=3 i mean that's kinda it
3x4=12
Substitute.
2x+(2x -15) = -3
4x -15 = -3
Add 15 to both sides
4x = 12
Divide by 4
X=3
2(3) + y = -3
6+y=-3
-6 from both sides
Y=-9
(3,-9)
First option:
y=money saved
x=number of months
y=30x+500
Second option:
y=50x+200
We have this system of equations:
y=30x+500
y=50x+200
We can solve this system of equations by equalization method
30x+500=50x+200
30x-50x=200-500
-20x=-300
x=-300/-20
x=15
so;
y=30x+500
y=30(15)+500
y=450+500
y=950
Answer; after 15 months, she would save the same amount using either option, the amount saved in either option will be $950.
Note that if we add each side of the 2 equations, y will cancel out:
-12x-y+(17x+y)=6+4
5x=10
x=2
Substituting x=2 in either of the equations, we find the value of y.
Let's use the first equation:
-12x-y=6
-24-y=6
-y=24+6
-y=30, so y=-30.
Thus, the solution is (2, -30)
