X-5y=21 and-6x=24 solve by substitution
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The value of x is (-4) and y is (-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given</u>;</h3>
  • x – 5y = 21
  • -6x = 24
<h3><u>To Find</u>;</h3>
  • Value of x
  • Value of y

Now,

-6x = 24

-6x/(-6) = 24/(-6)

x = -4

So, Substitute the value of x in x – 5y = 21

x – 5y = 21

-4 – 5y = 21

-4 + 4 – 5y = 21 + 4

-5y = 25/

-5y/(-5) = 25/(-5)

y = -5

Thus, The value of x is (-4) and y is (-5)

<h3><u>For </u><u>Verification</u>;</h3>

x – 5y = 21

-4 – 5(-5) = 21

-4 + 25 = 21

21 = 21

-6x = 24

-6(-4) = 24

24 = 24

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence Verified!

I need this to be explained and have the answer thanks I AM BEGGING YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

  Store A has a better deal because $402.90 is less than $404.10.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Store A</u>

The $25 off coupon reduces the price to ...

  $499 - 25 = $474

The discount from this amount is 15%, so is ...

  $474 × 0.15 = $71.10

The final amount paid is then ...

  $474.00 -71.10 = $402.90

(<em>Side note</em>: you can select the correct answer at this point, because only one answer shows this value.)

___

<u>Store B</u>

After the $20 off coupon, the price is ...

  $469 -20 = $449

The additional 10% discount amounts to ...

  $449 × 0.10 = $44.90

So, the final price is ...

  $449.00 -44.90 = $404.10

___

Now, you know that Store A offers the better price because $402.90 is less than $404.10.

Use the Binomial Theorem to expand each binomial (5x-4y)^3
jek_recluse [69]
You should know that:

(a+b)(a+b)(a+b)

=a(a+b)(a+b)+b(a+b)(a+b)

=a(a²+2ab+b²)+b(a²+2ab+b²)

=a³+2a²b+ab²+a²b+2ab²+b³

=a³+3a²b+3ab²+b³

-----------------

If a=5x and b=-4y

(5x+(-4y))³

=(5x-4y)³

=(5x)³+3(5x)²(-4y)+3(5x)(-4y)²+(-4y)³

=125x³+3(25x²)(-4y)+15x(16y²)-64y³

=125x³+75x²(-4y)+240xy²-64y³

=125x³-300x²y+240xy²-64y³
