Solve the given system of equations.

1 answer:

8 0

The given equations are:
1) 2y = -x + 9
⇒ x = 9-2y

2) 3x - 6y = -15
⇒3x = 6y - 15
x = 2y - 5

Equating the values of x, we get:

9 - 2y = 2y - 5
9 + 5 = 4y
14 = 4y
y = 3.5

Using this value of y in equation 1 we get:

x = 9 - 2(3.5) = 2

So, the solution set is (2, 3.5)

£620 is divided between Malachy, Paul & Brian so that Malachy gets twice as much as Paul, and Paul gets three times as much

geniusboy [140]

Answer: Paul gets £186

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul has 1/2 as much as Malachy, and Brian has 1/3 as much Paul, therefore Brian has 1/6 as much as Malachy.

1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6

So Malachy’s amount equals 1 in this equation, Paul’s amount equals 1/2 in this equation, and Brian’s amount equals 1/6 in this equation.

1 + 1/2 + 1/6 = 1 + 3/6 + 1/6 = 1 4/6

Now, divide 620 by 1 4/6 to find Malachy’s amount.

620/1 4/6 = 372

Now, divde 372 by 2 to get Paul’s amount.

372/2 = 186
