10x + 7y=1 -5x-7y=24

1 answer:

8 0

Okay, so since both y values share the same number, let's add both equations so the y values cancel out leaving us to solve for x.

10x+(-5x)=5x

7y+(-7y)=0

1+24=25

Now we have 5x=25

divide both sides by 5 and we have x=5

Now that we know x=5, we can plug it into one of the problems to find y.

Let's do 10(5) +7y=1

50+7y=1 subtract 5 and we get 7y=-49

divide -7 from both sides and we get y=-7

so there you have it x=5 and y=-7

Ulleksa [173]

Hey!!!!

Here's your answer:

Solution:

A={2,3,4,5}

B={5,6,7,8}

 A U B={2,3,4,5} U {5,6,7,8}

 ={2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

In case of Union,we have to list all the elements which are present in both sets.

Hope it helps...

Good luck on your assignment

Answer: 15.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Martin would like to start training to run a marathon and that first week he runs a total of 15 miles.

We are further told that he would like to run 0.3 more miles each week than the week before. There, the number of miles that Martin will run the second week will be:

= 15 miles + 0.3 miles

= 15.3 miles
