An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The value of x and y is 17 and 20, respectively. Thus, the correct option is D.

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

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Solving the first equation for y,

4x - 3y = 8

-3y = 8 - 4x

y = (8-4x)/(-3)

Solving the second equation for y,

5x - 4y = 5

-4y = 5 - 5x

y = (5 - 5x)/(-4)

Equate the value of y,

y = y

(8-4x)/(-3) = (5 - 5x)/(-4)

-32 + 16x = -15 + 15x

16x - 15x = -15 + 32

x = 17

Substitute the value of x in any one of the equation,

4x - 3y = 8

4(17) - 3y = 8

68 - 3y = 8

-3y = -60

y = 20

Hence, the value of x and y is 17 and 20, respectively. Thus, the correct option is D.

The length of a rectangle is (x+3) inches long,and the width is 3⅖ inches.If the area is 15 3/10 square inches,write an equation
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

(x + 3) = 9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write an equation to find the length of the rectangle

Mathematically;

Area of rectangle = length * breadth

15 3/10 = (x + 3) * 3 2/5

(x + 3) = 15 3/10 divided by 3 2/5

(x + 3) = 153/10 * 5/17

(x + 3) = 9/2

18 gallons of water divided by 0.5 gallons of water 
if you did that correctly you should have gotten... 36 jugs

How do you solve the equation y-3=-¼(x+3)
likoan [24]

Because you have two variables and only one equation, you can only solve for approximate answers, and not complete, absolute answers.

<h3><u>You can simplify this equation to x = -4y + 12</u></h3>

y - 3 = -1/4(x + 3)

Distributive property.

y - 3 = -1/4x - 3/4

Multiply all terms by 4.

4y - 12 = -x

Multiply all terms by -1

-4y + 12 = x
