It quickly becomes apparent that 174 is much too large, so n must be 144.The value of the n is 144.

Taking the given equation modulo 2,3, and 5, respectively, we have

n⁵≡(mod 2)

n⁵≡(mod 3)

n⁵≡( mod 5)

By either Fermat's Little Theorem (FLT) or inspection, we get

n≡(mod 2)

n≡(mod 3)

n≡( mod 5)

By either the Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) or inspection, we get n≡ 24 ( mod 30)

It is clear that n>133, so the possible values for n are 144,174,204,...Note that

n⁵ = 133⁵ + 110⁵ + 84⁵ + 27⁵

n⁵ < 133⁵ + 110⁵ +( 84 + 27)⁵

n⁵ =133⁵ + 110⁵ + 111⁵

n⁵ < 3.133⁵

From which (n/133)⁵ < 3

If n>= 174 then,

(n/133)⁵ > 1.3⁵

(n/133)⁵ = 3

which arrives at a contradiction. Therefore, we conclude that n=144

-4y=-20x+40<br> y+10=5x
mart [117]

Answer:

infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find solution to the system:

-4y=-20x+40

y+10=5x

We make y the subject in the second equation to get;

y=5x-10

We substitute y=5x-10 into the top equation to get:

- 4(5x - 10) =  - 20x + 40

We expand to obtain;

- 20x  + 40=  - 20x + 40

This implies that:

40 = 40

Therefore the system has infinitely many solutions.
