​−8x + 4y = 24 -- (1)
​−7x + 7y = 28 -- (2)

Eqn (1) & (2) are simplified as

y - 2x = 6 -- (3)
y - x = 4 -- (4)

By making y the subject of formula in (4), we have

y = x + 4 -- (5)

Substitute x + 4 for y in (3), then

x + 4 - 2x = 6
x - 2x = 6 - 4
- x = 2
x = - 2.

Substitute - 2 for x in (5), then

y = - 2 + 4
y = 2.

Therefore, (x, y) = (- 2, 2) ...Ans.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

37 %

Step-by-step explanation:

here..

only Dog = 20- 5 - 4 - 1 = 10

only goats = 30 - 5 - 3 - 1 = 21

only cattle = 40 - 4 - 3 - 1 = 32

then ... since the maximum percentage is 100 %

people who don't own any animal = 100% - 10% - 21% - 32% = 37 %
