First because 5x+5y=0 you can factor the 5
from equation so:
5(x+y) =5 (0) => x+y=0
and by solving for × using elimination method
-8x+y=36
x+y=0
by subtracting both x and y we get
-9x=36 => x=-4
by inputing × into the "x+y=0" equation so we get:
-4+y=0 => y=4

Answer:

x=  -4, y = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

first, divide the first equation by its G.C.D (5), to obtain its simplest form.

5x/5 + 5y/5 = 0/5 to obtain x + y = 0.

Then, find the value of y by rearranging the second equation.

y = 36 + 8x. (Rem; when 8x moves to the other side of the equation, it changes the sign)

Now substitute the value of y (36 + 8x) in the first equation which is x + y = 0.

x + 36+8x = 0

Put like terms together.

36 + 9x = 0

move 9x to the other side and change its sign.

36 = -9x

divide both sides by 9,

x = -4.

Lastly, find the value of y by replacing the value of x in either equation.

-8(-4) + y = 36

32 + y = 36

rearrange to obtain

y = 36 - 32

y = 4.

Solve the following word problem by using an equation and factoring. The sum of a positive number and its square is 20. What is
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Number:  n
square of number:  n^2
sum of n and n^2 is n+n^2=20
Rewriting this equation, we get n^2+n-20=0 = (n+5)(n-4) = 0

Then n+5=0 and n-4=0, so n = -5 and n = 4.

You must check both results.  It could happen that both are correct, or that only one is correct.

8 (x+8) = 100 - 13x how do i solve this?
patriot [66]

Answer:

x=1.714285714 or x=1.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 8 to x and 8 (8x+64)

Get rid of -13x on the other side of the equation by doing +13x to both sides.

That should leave you with 21x+64=100.

Subtract 64 from both sides of the equation.

21x=36

Divide 21 from both sides which will leave you with the answer as a long decimal so round it.

x=1.71

Please help I can't figure it out
saul85 [17]

Answer:

61.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding the total area of the circle

it says that the radius is 4 so the total area is 16π

Then let's find the area of the traingle

The hieght is 6.5 and the base is 6

.5*6.5*6=19.5

Let's then find the white area

16π-19.5=30.765

Finally we just have to do (30.765/16π)= 61.2%

A class of 165 students went on a field trip. They
navik [9.2K]

answer

the number of buses is 3

the number of cars is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of the students=165

total number of the vehicles=9

let x represent the number of cars

let y represent the number of buses

x+y=9...........equation 1

(the number of the cars plus the number of the buses= to the number of vehicles )

5x + 45y=165.......equation 2

(the number of student the car can hold plus the number of student the bus can hold= to the total number of the student in a class)

x+y=9.......eqn 1

5x +45y=165....eqn 2

make x the subject of the formula in eqn 1

x+y=9

x= 9-y

substitute for x= 9-y in eqn 2

5(9-y)+45y=165

45-5y+45y=165

-5y+45y=165-45

40y=120

divide both sides by 40

40y÷40=120÷40

y=3

since y represent number of buses,the numbet of bus is 3

Also,substitute for y=3 in eqn 1

eqn 1 is x+y=9

x+3=9

x=9-3

x=6

therefore,the number of cars is 6.

William is thinking of a number n, and he wants his sister to guess the number. His first clue is that five less than two times
kati45 [8]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

William is thinking of a number n.

Then

two times his number = 2n

five less than two times his number = 2n - 5

The result is between negative three and fifteen, so

-3\le 2n-5\le 15

Solve this compound inequality. First, add 5:

-3+5\le 2n-5+5\le 15+5\\ \\2\le 2n\le 20

Divide it by 2:

1\le n\le 10

William's number is between 1 and 10
