Answer:
x = 4 or x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
0.10r + 0.20b = 24
3r = b + 20....b = 3r - 20
0.10r + 0.20(3r - 20) = 24
0.10r + 0.60r - 4 = 24
0.70r = 24 + 4
0.70r = 28
r = 28/0.70
r = 40 <=== there are 40 reds
0.10r + 0.20b = 24
0.10(40) + 0.20b = 24
4 + 0.20b = 24
0.20b = 24 - 4
0.20b = 20
b = 20/0.20
b = 100 <=== there are 100 blues
Answer:
(-5,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the first equation by -2,and multiply the second equation by 1.
−2(x+5y=20)
1(2x−7y=−45)
Becomes:
−2x−10y=−40
2x−7y=−45
Add these equations to eliminate x:
−17y=−85
Then solve−17y=−85for y:
(Divide both sides by -17)
y=5
x+5y=20
Substitute 5 for y in x+5y=20:
x+(5)(5)=20
x+25=20(Simplify both sides of the equation)
x+25+−25=20+−25(Add -25 to both sides)
x=-5
