The solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5

<h3>Simultaneous linear equations</h3>

From the question, we are to solve the given system of equations

The given system of equation is

4x+5y=-1

-5x-8y=10

Multiply the <u>first equation</u> by 5 and the <u>second equation</u> by 4

5× (4x+5y=-1)

4× (-5x-8y=10)

20x + 25y = -5

-20x - 32y = 40

------------------------

0x + (-7y) = 35

-7y = 35

y = 35/-7

y = -5

Substitute the value of y into the first equation to find x

4x + 5y = -1

4x + 5(-5) = -1

4x -25 = -1

4x = -1 +25

4x = 24

x = 24/4

x = 6

Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5

To make a specific hair dye, a hair stylist uses a ratio of 1 1/8 oz of red tone, 3/4 oz of gray
nadezda [96]

Answer:

We can call the amounts of red, gray, and brown dye 1 1/8x, 3/4x and 5/8 x respectively and we can write the equation:

1 1/8x + 3/4x + 5/8x = 20

2 1/2x = 20

x = 8 which means that the stylist needs 1 1/8 * 8 = 9 oz red, 3/4 * 8 = 6 oz gray and 5/8 * 8 = 5 oz brown.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

let dimention of original garden be x

then (x-8)(x-5) = 180

x^2 -13x -140 = 0

(x-20)(x+7)=0

x= 20 or x = -7

x = 20

original area = (20)^2

= 400 m^2
