We have the 2 equations
1- ) 5x-8y=6
2-) -6x-3y=18
multiplying the first equation by 3 and the second equation by 8 then subtracting
1-) 15x-24y=18
2-) -48x-24y=144
-48x-24y=144
(-) 15x-24y=18
-------------------------------------
-63x = 126
x=-2
substituting in equation 1
5(-2)-8y=6
-10-8y=6
-8y=16
y=-2
the soultion is (-2,-2)
Because when you divide you get the same answer or something to do with percents
The greatest common factor and factoring by grouping of the following is;
- 3m
- 2a
- 8xy
- 5mn
- 3(r + t)²
- z²(m + n)⁴
<h3>Greatest common factor</h3>
The greatest common factor is the largest positive integer or polynomial that is a divisor of several different numbers. For instance, the greatest common divisor of 66, 30 and 18 is 6.
9m³, 3m², 15m
= 3m
4a², 6a, 2a³
= 2a
16xy³, 24x²y², 8x²y
= 8xy
10m²n², 25mn³, 50m²n
= 5mn
6m(r + t)², 3p(r + t)⁴
= 3(r + t)²
7z²(m + n)⁴, 9z³(m + n)^5
= z²(m + n)⁴
