Solve the given system by the substitution method
5x + y 19
7x-2y = 13​

x = 3 , y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = 19 ( 1 )

=> y = 19 - 5x

7x - 2y = 13 ( 2 )

Substitute y in ( 2 ) :

                        7x - 2( 19 - 5x ) = 13

                        7x - 38 + 10x = 13

                        17x = 13 + 38

                        17x = 51

                           x = 3

Substitute x in ( 1 ) :

                           5x + y = 19

                           5( 3 ) + y = 19

                            15 + y = 19

                              y = 19 - 15

                               y = 4

total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is $98

step-by-step explanation:

given a united states citizen returning to the states declares the following items at the customs office: 3 shirts at $8.50 each 2 dresses at $27.50 each 1 pair of gold cuff links at $17.50 per pair. we have to find how much he pay

cost of 3 shirts if one cost at $8.50 is

cost of 2 dresses if one cost at $27.50 is  

cost of 1 pair of gold cuff at $17.50

so, total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is   $25.5+$55+$17.50=$98
