The solutions to the given system of equations are x = 4 and y = -9

<h3>Simultaneous linear equations</h3>

From the question, we are to determine the solutions to the given system of equations

The given system of equations are

-8x-4y=4  --------- (1)

-5x-y=-11   --------- (2)

Multiply equation (2) by 4

4 ×[-5x-y=-11 ]

-20x -4y = -44  -------- (3)

Now, subtract equation (3) from equation (1)

-8x -4y = 4  --------- (1)

-(-20x -4y = -44)  -------- (3)

12x = 48

x = 48/12

x = 4

Substitute the value of x into equation (2)

-5x -y = -11

-5(4) -y = -11

-20 -y = -11

-y = -11 + 20

-y = 9

∴ y = -9

Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations are x = 4 and y = -9

Find the measure of &lt; AED for m &lt; BEC = 96
Strike441 [17]
I wish you would of put a picture but with what you gave me. if the angle is a straight line then you would just set it up like 96+x=180 bc a straight line ='s 180 and den subtract 96 from 180 which is 84 so x would = 84 if the angle is a supp. angle but til there's not a picture this might be wrong.
But i hope this helps have a nice nite!

icang [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The water has to be 100% - 60% = 40%

100% represents both water alcohol (I think that's what you meant).

40% of 250 = 40/100 * 250 = 10000/100 = 100 mL

So 100 mL = water

150 mL = alcohol.
