The solution of the equation are as follows:

x = 6 and y = -5

<h3 />

<h3>How to solve the system of equation?</h3>

4x + 5y = -1

-5x - 8y = 10

Therefore,

20x + 25y = -5

-20x - 32y = 40

-7y = 35

y = -5

Hence,

4x + 5(-5) = -1

4x - 25 = -1

4x = -1 + 25

4x = 24

x = 24 / 4

x = 6

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

$27 \cdot \left(\left(3^3\right)^{-1}\right)$

Following the <u>order of operations</u>, carry out the operations inside the parentheses first:

$\implies 27 \cdot \left(\left(3 \cdot 3\cdot 3\right)^{-1}\right)$

$\implies 27 \cdot \left(27^{-1}\right)$

$\textsf{Apply exponent rule} \quad a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}:$

$\implies 27 \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{27^1}\right)$

$\implies 27 \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{27}\right)$

Convert 27 to a fraction:

$\implies \dfrac{27}{1} \cdot \dfrac{1}{27}$

Cross cancel the common factor:

$\implies \dfrac{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!27}{1} \cdot \dfrac{1}{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!27}$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{1}$

$\implies 1$

What is 2/3-2/5 help me

balandron [24]

Answer: 4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the denominators equal first including the numerators. So, the common factor is 15. So 2/3 turns into 10/15 and 2/5 turns into 6/15. Now subtract. 10/15-6/15 is 4/15
