What is the answer key for part a and b

x=$2.50, y=$4.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x=cost of the water slide

Let y=cost of the ferris wheel

System of equations:

3x+3y=19.50

2x+3y=17.00

Subtract the 2nd from the 1st to get:

x=2.50

Now plug into first equation to get:

3(2.50)+3y=19.50 so y=4.00

Check in 2nd equation:

2(2.50)+3(4) = 5+12 = 17

3x+3y=19.50

2x+3y=17.00

Subtract the 2nd from the 1st to get:

x=2.50

Now plug into first equation to get:

3(2.50)+3y=19.50 so y=4.00

Check in 2nd equation:

2(2.50)+3(4) = 5+12 = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

$650 per month plus utilities

step-by-step explanation:

just based on the info you gave, it would seem more cost effective to rent at $650 per month plus utilities.   if utilities are, in fact, $150 per month, your monthly living costs would be $800 as opposed to the other option of $825.
