Answer:

x = 1

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 4 __ (1)

2x + y = 3 __ (2)

equation (1) x 2, (2) x 1

2x + 2y = 8

2x + y = 3

0 + y = 5

y= 5 (ANS)

x + y = 4

x + 5 = 4

x = 5 - 4

x = 1 (ANS)

azamat

Answer:

$0.000035km$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1km =1000m \\ x = 0.035m$

$use \: \: cross \: \: multipication$

$0.035 \times 1 = 1000x \\ 0.035 = 1000x \\ \frac{0.035}{1000} = \frac{1000x}{1000} \\ x = 0.000035km$

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The cost of chocolate pumpkins is $1.89, masks cost $5.75 and candy witches cost $1.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of chocolate pumpkins, y the cost of masks and z the cost of candy witches.

Cory shopping can be represented as:

3x + 4y + 8z = 41.63 (1)

Josh shopping can be represented as:

6x + 2y + 14z = 45.52 (2)

Dan shopping can be represented as:

8x + 3y + 25z = 72.87 (3)

The equations in matrix form is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&4&8\\6&2&14\\8&3&25\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}41.63\\45.52\\72.87\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&4&8\\6&2&14\\8&3&25\end{array}\right] ^{-1}\left[\begin{array}{c}41.63\\45.52\\72.87\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}1.89\\5.75\\1.62\end{array}\right]$
