The question is probably incomplete. What i am assuming is that the person might ask for the previous ratio or the total number of pens and pencil in the drawer.

So if it is the previous ratio it obviously would be 47 - 5 : 17 -3 so 42 : 14 and in case he or she is asking for the total number of pens and pencils in the drawer before so they were 42 + 14 hence 56.

What is the smallest value of y in the solution set to the system of equations below?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The smallest value of y in the given two equations is 78

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The two equation is given as :

y = x² + 6 x +23               ...........1

y = 18 x - 12.                     ..........2

Now, solving both equations

putting the value of y from eq 2 into eq 1

So,  x² + 6 x +23 = 18 x - 12

Or,  x² + 6 x +23 - 18 x + 12 = 0

Or, x² - 12 x + 35 = 0

Or, x² - 5 x - 7 x + 35 = 0

Or, x (x - 5) - 7(x - 5) = 0

Or, (x - 5) (x - 7) = 0

∴ x = 5 , 7

Now, for smallest value of y , take x = 5

∴ put the value of x in eq 2

So, y = 18 x - 12

I.e y = 18 × 5 - 12

Or, y = 90 - 12

∴   y = 78

Hence, The smallest value of y in the given two equations is 78 . answer
