1. What is the solution of the system of equations shown below?
y = 3x + 7
y = x-9

If you trying to find x and y is the answer is:

x=-8 and y=-17

or

(-8,-17)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to subtract the two equations which becomes 2x+16=0

Now you move the 16 to the other side by subtracting 16 on both sides:

2x=-16

Now divide 2 on both sides to eliminate the 2 on 2x

x=-8

Now that you got -8 as x you can replace x on the two equations any one of them you only need to get one but I am going to use both of them to show you that it is the same:

y= 3(-8)+7

y=-17

y=-8-9

y=-17

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
