A video game system and several games are sold for $560. The cost is the games is 3 times as much as the cost of the system. Find the cost of the system and the cost of the games.

The cost of video game system is $ 420 and the cost of  game is $ 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The total cost of the video game system and the several game = $ 560

Let, the cost of several game = x and

The cost of video game system = 3x

To find the cost of the system and the games

According to the problem,

x + 3x = 560

or, 4x = 560

or, x =

= $ 140

Hence, the cost of several game = $ 140 and

The cost of video game system = $ 3 × 140 = $ 420

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
