You can put this solution on YOUR website!
X=number of 24-exposure rolls; Y=number of 35-exposure rolls
\n" ); document.write( "SECTION A: SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS
\n" ); document.write( "X+Y=22
\n" ); document.write( "$9.00X+$12.00Y=$219
\n" ); document.write( "SECTION B: SOLUTIONS
\n" ); document.write( "Method 1-Substitution
\n" ); document.write( "From equation1 above
\n" ); document.write( "X=22-Y Substitute for X in second equation.
\n" ); document.write( "$9.00X+$12.00Y=$219
\n" ); document.write( "$9.00(22-Y)+$12.00Y=$219
\n" ); document.write( "$198-$9.00Y+$12.00Y=$219 Subtract $198 from each side.
\n" ); document.write( "$3.00Y=$21 Divide each side by $3.00
\n" ); document.write( "Y=7 ANSWER 1: There were 7 rolls of 36-exposure film.
\n" ); document.write( "X+Y=22
\n" ); document.write( "X+7=22 Subtract 7 from each side.
\n" ); document.write( "X=15 ANSWER 2: There were 15 rolls of 24-exposure film.
\n" ); document.write( "CHECK:
\n" ); document.write( "$9.00X+$12.00Y=$219
\n" ); document.write( "$9.00(15)+$12.00(7)=$219
\n" ); document.write( "$135+$84=$219
\n" ); document.write( "$219=$219
\n" ); document.write( "Method 2-Elimination
\n" ); document.write( "X+Y=22
\n" ); document.write( "$9.00X+$12.00Y=$219 Multiply first equation by $9.00 and subtract
\n" ); document.write( "$9.00X+$9.00Y=$198
\n" ); document.write( "$3.00Y=$21 Divide each side by $3.00
\n" ); document.write( "Y=7 ANSWER 1: There were 7 rolls of 36-exposure film.
\n" ); document.write( "Continue as in Method 1\r
