The answer is 3!
P.S. Brainliest would be awesome! i am trying to rank up and this will really help! i only need one more brainliest!
X=5 y=15 (5,15).
This is how you do it:
-4(2x+3y=55): -8x-12y=-220
3(9x+4y=105):27x+12y=315
You add the two new equations together, canceling out the y values, and get the x value. Then, you go back and plug in the x value in the original equation to get the y value.
Based on the given mathematical statement, it can be rewritten into a mathematical equation to simplify and to be solved easily. The statement, "When one is subtracted from three-tenths of a number" corresponds to the equation, 3x/10 - 1, that is assuming the number is represented by the variable x. This is equal to one-fifth of the number. In other words,
3x/10 - 1 = x/5
x = 10
Y=6 because if you break it down you get (11y+7) =73 then you subtract 7 from both sides to get 11y=66 then you divide 11 on both sides to get y=6
