Let
x-------> the cost of the burger
y-------> the cost of the <span>sandwiches
we know that
3x+2y=27-----> equation 1
2x+y=27-11-----> 2x+y=16-----> multiply by -2-----> -4x-2y=-32--> equation 2
adds equation 1 and equation 2
</span> 3x+2y=27
-4x-2y=-32
<span>----------------
-x=27-32-----> x=5
3*5+2y=27----> 2y=27-15-----> y=6
therefore
the answer is the option
</span><span>3) The student's conclusion is correct because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 2y = 27 and 2x + y = 16 is (5, 6).</span>
I think it’s this but I’m not sure
In an algebraic equation, you should have at least 2 variables: the independent and the dependent. The independent variable in this case, is the parameter that cannot be controlled - time. This is expressed in minutes using the variable x. The dependent variable is the parameter you want to measure - the distance expressed using the variable y. Since the problem states a parameter of distance in terms of 2 kilometers, y=2. Therefore, I think the choices would be about the amount of minutes it would take for Bradley to cover this distance. Assuming this is the case, then the answer would be:
2 = 2000 - 90x
90x = 2000-2
90x = 1998
x = 1998/90
x = 22.3 minutes
It would take 22.3 minutes for Bradley to cover the 2 kilometers so that he could get home.
