6. The system of equations has no solution.
7. B. Tables - 15 lbs, chairs - 3.5 lbs.
How to Find the Solution to the System of Equations?
The values of x and y that makes two equations equal is the solution of a system of equations.
6. 3x + 4y = 12 --> eqn. 1
y = 3 - 3/4x --> eqn. 2
Substitute y = (3 - 3/4x) into eqn. 1 to find x:
3x + 4(3 - 3/4x) = 12
3x + 12 - 3x = 12
12 = 12 [unable to solve further for x]
This means that the system of equations has no solution.
7. t = tables
c = chairs
3t + 5c = 62.5 --> eqn. 1
3t + 2c = 52 --> eqn. 2
Subtract
3c = 10.5
c = 3.5 [chairs]
Substitute c = 3.5 into eqn. 2
3t + 2(3.5) = 52
3t + 7 = 52
3t = 52 - 7
3t = 45
t = 15 [table]
Therefore, the answer is: B. Tables - 15 lbs, chairs - 3.5 lbs.
