We need to find the base x in the following equation:
First, lets convert 365 from base 7 to base 10. This is given by
where the upperindex denotes the position of eah number. This gives
that is, 365 based 7 is equal to 194 bases 10.
Now, lets do the same for 43 based x. Lets convert 43 based x to base 10:
where again, the superindex 0 and 1 denote the position 0 and 1 in the number 43. This gives
Now, we have all number in base 10. Then, our first equation can be written in base 10 as
For simplicity, we can omit the 10 and get
so, we can solve this equation for x. By combining similar terms. we have
and by moving 197 to the right hand side, we obtain
Finally, we get
Therefore, the solution is x=5
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression of interest is the difference of the two given expressions.
(-4x +6y) -(-2x -7y) = (9) -(-8)
-2x +13y = 17
The value is 17.

<em>Additional comment</em>
You could go to the trouble to solve the two equations for x and y, then compute the value of the expression you want. As we saw above, that is not necessary.
The first step in problem solving is always "look at the given information and how it relates to what you are asked." A little time spent doing that can save a lot of effort in the actual problem solving process.
