6x − 3y = 42 6x + 8y = 20

Mathematics
1 answer:
san4es73 [151]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

X= 6, y= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 6x-3y=42------------(1)

6x + 8y =20---------(2)

Subtract (1) from (2) we have

(2) - (1)

6x-6x + 8y - (-3y) = 20 -42

11y = -22

y = -22/ 11 = -2

From (1)

6x - 3y =42

6x - 3(-2) = 42

6x + 6 = 42

6x = 42- 6

6x = 36

x= 36/6 = 6

The sum of two numbers is 79. Three times the first number added to 5 times the second number is 283. What are the two numbers?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

<u><em>The two numbers are 56 and 23.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be A and B.

We are told that:

A+B = 79, and

2)  3A + 5B = 283

Rearrange the first expression to isolate A:

A = 79-B

Now use this value of B in the second expression:

3A + 5B = 283

3(79-B) + 5B = 283

237-3B + 5B = 283

2B = 46

B = 23

If B=23, we can find A from (1):  

A+B = 79

A+23 = 79

A = 56

<u>CHECK:</u>

Does A+B = 79?

56 + 23 = 79?  <u><em>YES</em></u>

Does 3A + 5B = 283?

  3(56) + 5(23) = 283?

 168 + 115 = 283?  <u><em>YES</em></u>
