Dorle the destroyer gets paid by space command to vapors aliens. Last week she blasted 6 borgons and 23 kirkins and was paid $700. This week she blasted 6 borgons and 18 kirkins and was paid $600 Wright a system of equations that models the situation and calculate how much she gets paid for each borgon and kirkin

Respuesta :

Answer:

For each borgon and kirkin, she is paid $20 and $40 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = price of a borgon.

y = price of a kirkin.

Equations

for last week,

6x + 23y = 700 ....... *

For this week,

6x + 18y = 600 .......**

solving the two equations simultaneously using the elimination method, subtract eqn ** from eqn *

You would be left with

5y = 100.

y = 100/5

y = 20.

put y = 20 into any of the equations.

So putting it into equation...* ,

6x + 23 (20) = 700

6x + 460 = 700

6x = 700-460

6x = 240

x = 240/6

x = 40.
