4x - 3y = 3 (x-4)
5x - 4y = 3 (x3)
-16x + 12y = -12
15x -12y = 9
-x = -3
x = 3

Answer:  The required value of variable x is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the value of the variable x in the solution to the following system of equations :

4x-3y=3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\5x-4y=3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

In order to find the value of x, we need to eliminate y from both the equations.

Multiplying equation (i) by 4 and equation (ii) by 3, we have

4(4x-3y)=4\times 3\\\\\Rightarrow 16x-12y=12~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iii)\\\\\\3(5x-4y)=3\times3\\\\\Rightarrow 15x-12y=9~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iv)

Subtracting equation (iv) from equation (iii), we get

(16x-12y)-(15x-12y)=12-9\\\\\Rightarrow x=3.

Thus, the required value of variable x is 3.

Diego is solving this system of equations:
USPshnik [31]

The solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2

The system of equations are

4x + 3y = 10

-4x + 5y = 6

Here we have to use the elimination method. Eliminate the x term and find the value of y term

Add both equation

3y + 5y = 10 +6

Add the like terms

8y = 16

y = 16 / 8

Divide  the terms

y = 2

Substitute the value of x in the first equation

4x + 3y = 10

4x + 3×2 =  10

Multiply the terms

4x + 6  = 10

4x = 10 - 6

4x = 4

x = 4 / 4

Divide the terms

x = 1

Hence, the solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2

Find the sum of the geometric series for which a = 160, r = 0.5, and n = 6.
harina [27]

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(1-0.5^6)}{1-0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(1-0.015625)}{0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(0.984378)}{0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=80(0.984378)

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=78.75
