Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the two equations equal y, set them equal to each other.
x-1=-2x+5
From there, solve for x.
First get x on one side, by using the addition property of equality.
x-1=-2x+5
3x-1=5
Isolate x by adding 1.
3x=6
Lastly get x all by itself by dividing each side by 3.
x=2
You can now substitute your x-value, 2, into one of the equations (or both, if you wish; either one will result in the same answer.)
y=x-1
y=2-1
y=1
OR
y=-2x+5
y=-2(2)+5
y=-4+5
y=1
Final answer:
x=2 and y=1
Any questions or anything you would like me to clarify, feel free to ask :)
Just take both sides multiply by 2 then divide 3
Answer:
£15
Step-by-step explanation:
Angad : Nick = 5 : 1
Let
Nick share = x
Angad share = x + £60
Angad : Nick
5 : 1 = x + £60 : x
5/1 = x + 60 / x
Cross product
5 * x = 1 * x + 60
5x = x + 60
5x - x = 60
4x = 60
x = 60/4
x = 15
Nick get £15
