Step-by-step explanation:

using elimination method because this is a simultaneous equation

3×x+6×y=111

x+y=27

1×[3x+6y=111]

3×[x+y=27]

3x+6y=111—equation 1

3x+3y=81—equation 2

substrate equation 1 from equation 2

3y=30

divide both sides by 3

y=10

substitute 10 for y in equation 1

3x+6y=111

3x+6(10)=111

3x+60=111

3x=111-60

3x=51

divide both sides by 3

x=17

What numbers can give me 8 when added and 30 when multiplied
Paul [167]
In this problem, it is important to take note that the number of numbers to be utilized isn't specified so it can be up to a thousand numbers. It wasn't also specified if repeating of numbers is allowed or not. So with those taken into consideration and the condition presented in mind, the numbers that can give you 8 when added and 30 when multiplied are 2, 3, 5, -1, and another -1. The derivation from this is mainly from factorization and a little bit of logic.

here is the solution.

2 x 3 x 5 x -1 x -1 = 30
6 x 5 x -1 x -1 = 30
30 x -1 x -1 = 30
-30 x -1 = 30
30 = 30

2 + 3 + 5 + -1 + -1 = 8
5 + 5 + -1 + -1 = 8
10 + -1 + -1 = 8
9 + -1 = 8
8 = 8
