Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A = Adam, B = Betty
Adam and Betty purchased a printer together for $258.
This means we can say A + B = 258.
We are also told Adam paid $18 less than twice Betty.
You can write this as:
Adam = 2 x Betty - 18
A = 2B - 18
Substitute "A" into the A + B equation and you get:
A + B = 258
2B - 18 + B = 258
3B - 18 = 258
Add 18 to both sides.
3B = 258 + 18
3B = 276
Divide both sides by 3 to find B
B = 276/3 = 92 (This means Betty paid $92).
Since the total that they paid together was $258.
This means Adam pays the Total - How much Betty paid
Adam = 258 - 92 = $166
Let s be the distance traveled the second day.
1.5s+s=1380
2.5s=1380
s=552
So on the first day he traveled 1380-552=828 miles.
Add the two equations and use the elimination method. The x term will "cancel out" to be able to solve for the y term.
STEP 1
−12x−5y=40
12x−11y=88
x terms "cancels out"; add y terms
-16y= 128
divide both sides by -16
y= -8
STEP 2
substitute y value into either original equation
12x−11y=88
12x - 11(-8)= 88
12x + 88= 88
subtract 88 from both sides
12x= 0
divide both sides by 12; 0 divided by any number is 0
x= 0
ANSWER: x= 0; y= -8
