4 and -2.5

You can get this by first factoring the equation.

(2x + 5)(x - 4)

Then set both equal to zero and solve individually.

Solve the simultaneous equation: 5 x + 2 y = 25 5 x − y = 10

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

(x, y) = (3, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x+2y=25\\5x-y=10$

Solving by elimination here again, there are 2 good options available. Either multiply the whole bottom equation by -1 to cancel the x, or by 2 to cancel the y. I'll do the latter:

$5x+2y=25\\\\2(5x-y=10)\\10x-2y=20$

Add from top to bottom:

$\rightarrow (5x+10x)+(2y-2y)=25+20\\\rightarrow 15x=45\\\rightarrow x=3$

Now, with the value of x, solve for y in either of the equations. I'll choose the second one here:

$\rightarrow 5x-y=10\\\rightarrow 5(3)-y=10\\\rightarrow 15-y=10\\\rightarrow -y=-5\\\rightarrow y=5$

(x, y) = (3, 5)

A pound of weed and feed covers 200 square feet how many pounds are needed to fertilize a lawn measuring 70 feet by 50 feet

nika2105 [10]

You would have to find out how many square feet the lawn is first:
70 x 50 = 3500 square feet
You are told that one pound = 200 square feet so use this to calculate how many pound you’ll need for 3500 square feet.
3500 square feet divided by 200 square feet = 17.5 pounds
Answer: 17.5 pounds
