Solve the following system of equations using the elimination method.
5x + y = 9

x= -1/5y+9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+y=9

Step 1

First you need to add -y to both sides, basically subtracting y

5x+y-y= 9-y

Step 2

Divide both sides by 5, or multiply by 1/5. You want to do this because to cancel out 5, so you multiply the reciprocal, or divide the constant.

1/5*5x=-y+9/5

Then, you will get the answer

Hope this helps, sorry if it is wrong, I am just 4th grade :(

But I am sure this is correct :)

$2416.6

step-by-step explanation:

per hour = $ 25

total work time = 35

commission = 15%

total she has to make = $ 4,500

let she sold x dollar products

so her commission will be 15 % of x

now

total = weekly basic pay + commission

4500= (25*35) + 15 % of x

4500=875 + * x

4500-875 =   * x

3625= * x

multiplying wwith 100 on both sides gives

36250 = 15 x

now

x =  

x= $2416.6
