Question

I’m having trouble finding the answers to this problem

Answer 1

Explanation:

Solve by Subsitution

`x = 50 - y`

Replace this into the second equation

`y(50 - y) = 300`

`50y - {y}^(2) = 300`

Write in standard form

`- {y}^(2) + 50y = 300`

Use the quadratic formula, and our answer will be

(6.97,43.02)

(43.02,6.97)
