Answer:

$2x - 2y = 24 \\ 2(x - y) = 24 \\ x = 12 + y......eq(1) \\ 4x + 7y = - 40......eq(2) \\ substituting \: the \: value \: of \: x \: in \: eq(2) \\ 4(12 + y) + 7y = - 40 \\ 48 + 4y + 7y = - 40 \\ 11y = - 40 - 48 \\ y = \frac{ - 88}{11} \\ y = - 8 \\ putting \: the \: value \: of \: y \: im \: eq(1) \\ x = 12 - 8 \\ = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2y=24......eqi

x+2y=48........eqii

now solving eq i&ii

4x=72

x=72/4

x=18

now putting the value of x in eqii

18+2y=48

2y=48-18

y=30/2

y=15

Y= x - 4<br> 5x+y=-34<br> How would I do this in steps ?

Answer:

x = -5 y = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x -4

5x + y = - 34

substitute x-4 in for y to solve for x

5x + x - 4 = 34

solve for x . . . add 5x + x = 6x

so you now have 6x-4 = -34

add 4 to both sides of the equation

6x-4 + 4 = -34+ 4

6x = -30

divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = -30/6

x= -5

then you plug -5 for x in the first equation

y = x - 4

y= -5 -4

y =-9

x= -5 y= -9

Alice earns £450 in wages per month. She pays £200 in rent per month. Next month, • her wages will increase by 2% • her rent wil

zvonat [6]

Step-by-step explanation:

Wages

£450

450 x 1.02 = 459

Rent

£200

200 x 1.05 = 210

wages increases by £9

rent increases by £10

No the increase in her wages will not fully pay for the increase in the rent

If x = - 2 and y = 3, what is the value of - x∧- y? the answer is 1/8. how?

FinnZ [79.3K]

$-x^{-y}$

You have to know that every number to negative power is the inverse, for example:

$3^{-1}=\frac{1}{3^1}$

in this exercise we will make the same thing

when $x=-2~~and~~y=3$

$-(-2)^{-3}$

let's do the inverse

$-\frac{1}{(-2)^3}$

now $(-2)^3=-8$

$-\frac{1}{-8}$

doing the signal rule

$\boxed{\boxed{\frac{1}{8}}}$
