Step-by-step explanation:

The do so, first get 39% of £262 and then subtract the result from £262

That’s

39% of £262

Make 39% a decimal by dividing it by 100%

39/100 = 0.39

Now

0.39 x £262 = £102.18

Decrease is therefore

Answer:

[12, 15]

Step-by-step explanation:

{6x + 5y = 147

{8x + 4y = 156

-¾[8x + 4y = 156]

{6x + 5y = 147

{-6x - 3y = -117 ← New Equation

________________

2y = 30

2 2

y = 15 [Plug this back into both equations to get the x-coordinate of 12]; 12 = x

So, using the Elimination Method, what I did here was took the bottom equation and multiplied it by -¾, turning 8x to -6x, canceling out all x-terms. It does not matter which variable you choose to eliminate, as long as you know what you are doing.
