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

Please help me I have been stuck on this question for ages

Finger [1]

Answer:28 green and 35 red

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

If there are r red counter and g green counter then

Probability of drawing a green counter is $P(g)=\frac{4}{9}$

and $P(g)=\frac{\text{No of g counter}}{\text{Total no of counter}}$

Thus $\frac{\text{No of g counter}}{\text{Total no of counter}}=\frac{4}{9}$

$\frac{g}{g+r}=\frac{4}{9}$

$\Rightarrow 9g=4g+4r$

$\Rightarrow 5g=4r\quad \ldots(i)$

Also if 4 red and 2 green counter is added the probability of drawing a green counter is

$P(g)=\frac{10}{23}=\frac{\text{No of g counter}}{\text{Total no of counter}}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{10}{23}=\frac{g+2}{g+2+r+4}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{10}{23}=\frac{g+2}{g+r+6}$

$\Rightarrow 10g+10r+60=23g+46$

$\Rightarrow 10r+14=13g\ quad \ldots(ii)$

Substitute the value of g in equation (ii)[/tex]

$\Rightarrow 10\times \frac{5}{4}g+14=13g$

$\Rightarrow \frac{25}{2}g+14=13g$

$\Rightarrow g=28$

Therefore $r=35$

Thus there 28 green counter and 35 red counter

Rain : sunny : overcast
7:11:3

7x + 11x + 3x = 366
21x = 366
x = 366/21
x = 17.43

7(17.43) = 122.01 days rain
11(17.43) = 191.73 days sunny
3(17.43) = 52.29 days overcast
