If you’re asking to solve a system of equations, then x=4 and y= 12/5 or 2.4

First Solve 2x+5y=20 for x

Add -5y to each side
2x=5y-20

Divide both sides by 2
x= -5/2y +10

Next substitute -5/2y +10 for y in the equation 6x-5y=12

6(-5/2y+10) -5y=12
-20y+ 60= 12

Then simplify again by adding -60 to each side
-20y= -48

Then divide by -20 on each side

Y= 12/5 (or 2.4)

Now to find x substitute 12/5 for y in x= -5/2y+10

X= -5/2(12/5) +10

X= 4

So X=4 and Y= 12/5 or 2.4

Hope that helped

The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 13. If 27 is added to the number, the digits will be interchanged. Find the numbe
Lesechka [4]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

58


Discussion:

Suppose the 2-digit number is "ab". That is, 10a + b.

Sum of digits = 13  =>  a + b = 13   (*)

Digits reversed if 27 added to number  => (10a + b) + 27 = 10b + a  (**)

(**) =

(10a + b) + 27 = 10b + a            => subtract 10b, then a, from both sides

9a -9b = -27                              => divide both sides by 9

a - b = -3

From (*),  a+ b = 13 so  

(a-b) + ( a+b) = -3 + 13  =>

2a = 10 =>

a = 5

As  a +b = 13, 5 + b = 13 => b = 8

Hence the number "ab" is 58


Thank you,

MrB

olga_2 [115]

The inequality that describes the calories burned is 7x + 9y ≥ 441

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

An independent variable is a variable that does not depends on other variable while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variable.

let x represent the number of minutes of running and y represent the number of minutes of swimming, hence:

7x + 9y ≥ 441

The inequality that describes the calories burned is 7x + 9y ≥ 441
