2x + y = 3
3x - y = 12
Add both equations
5x = 15, x = 3
2(3) + y = 3
6 + y = 3, y = -3
Solution: x = 3, y = -3... or (3,-3)
<h2>
Answer with explanation:</h2>
We are asked to prove by the method of mathematical induction that:

where n is a positive integer.
then we have:

Hence, the result is true for n=1.
- Let us assume that the result is true for n=k
i.e.

- Now, we have to prove the result for n=k+1
i.e.
<u>To prove:</u> 
Let us take n=k+1
Hence, we have:

( Since, the result was true for n=k )
Hence, we have:

Also, we know that:

(
Since, for n=k+1 being a positive integer we have:
)
Hence, we have finally,

Hence, the result holds true for n=k+1
Hence, we may infer that the result is true for all n belonging to positive integer.
i.e.
where n is a positive integer.

Comment below if you have any questions or want an explanation:
Answer:
0.50 or 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
40 x 125 = X
1.25 as a decimal or 125%
40 x 1.25 = 0.50
0.50 --->50%
40 x 125% = 50%
