Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
To eliminate is to get rid of one of the variables.
You can choose to either add each term in the equations or subtract each term in the equation.
For a variable to be eliminated, there must one pair that have the same constant with it. Each equation already has the same constant with a variable.
Try adding them.
. y - x = 15
<u>+ y - x = 5</u>
2y - 2x = 20 No variables were eliminated.
Try subtracting.
. y - x = 15
<u>- y - x = 5</u>
0y - 0x = 10 All variables were eliminated.
. 0 = 10 This is false.
This system of equations cannot be solved.
Graphically, these two lines would have the same slope and are parallel. The solution to a system is same as the point of intersection. Parallel lines never meet, never intersect, therefore there is no solution.
Well, as far as I can tell, the mean (average) is the best representation of the data because there is no outlier (a number a lot higher or lower than the rest of the numbers that throws the data off).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Paperback Books:
Number of books
Cost of 1 book
Magazines:
Number of magazines
Cost of 1 magazine=
This one isn't too hard, just plug in each value!
x = -1
y = -4(-1) + 3
y = 7
x = 0
y = -4(0) + 3
y = 3
x = 1
y = -4(1) + 3
y = -1
x = 2
y = -4(2) + 3
y = -5
