You have a square with an area of 100 meters^2.
if you decrees a pair of opposite sides by 50%. you end up with a rectangle with the area of 50 meters^2.
then you increase the other pair of opposite sides by 50%. you end up with a rectangle with the area of 75 meters^2. OK now I see what I did wrong. 

The correct answer is 75%

6x - 2y = 5
laiz [17]

Answer:

The given system has NO SOLUTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given system of equation is:

6 x -  2 y = 5     .......... (1)

3 x  - y = 10          .... (2)

Multiply equation 2 with (-2), we get:

3 x  - y = 10     ( x -2)

⇒  - 6 x + 2 y = - 20

Now, ADD this to equation (1) , we get:

6 x - 2 y  - 6 x + 2 y  = 5 - 20

or, 0 = - 15

WHICH IS NOT POSSIBLE as 0 ≠ -15

Hence, the given system has NO SOLUTION.
