Answer:
20 newspapers
Step-by-step explanation:
First create an equation.
y = 0.75x + 45
Now substitute 60 y and solve for x.
60 = 0.75x + 45
60 - 45 = 0.75x + 45 - 45
15/0.75 = 0.75x/0.75
x = 20 newspapers
Step-by-step explanation:
All the 5 rows of the coefficient matrix (since it is of order 5×8) will have a pivot position. The augmented matrix obtained by adding a last column of constant terms to the 8 columns of the coefficient matrix will have nine columns and will not have a row of the form [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1]. So the system is consistent.
