Given that
(2/x)+(3/y) = 13--------(1)
(5/x)-(4/y) = -2 -------(2)
Put 1/x = a and 1/y = b then
2a + 3b = 13 ----------(3)
On multiplying with 5 then
10a +15 b = 65 -------(4)
and
5a -4b= -2 ----------(5)
On multiplying with 2 then
10 a - 8b = -4 -------(6)
On Subtracting (6) from (4) then
10a + 15b = 65
10a - 8b = -4
(-)
_____________
0 + 23 b = 69
______________
⇛ 23b = 69
⇛ b = 69/23
⇛ b =3
On Substituting the value of b in (5)
5a -4b= -2
⇛ 5a -4(3) = -2
⇛ 5a -12 = -2
⇛ 5a = -2+12
⇛ 5a = 10
⇛ a = 10/5
⇛ a = 2
Now we have
a = 2
⇛1/x = 2
⇛ x = 1/2
and
b = 3
⇛1/y = 3
⇛ y = 1/3
<u>Answer :-</u>The solution for the given problem is (1/2,1/3)
<u>Check</u>: If x = 1/2 and y = 1/3 then
LHS = (2/x)+(3/y)
= 2/(1/2)+3/(1/3)
= (2×2)+(3×3)
= 4+9
= 13
= RHS
LHS=RHS is true
and
LHS=(5/x)-(4/y)
⇛ 5/(1/2)- 4/(1/3)
⇛(5×2)-(4×3)
⇛ 10-12
⇛ -2
⇛RHS
LHS = RHS is true
Using proportions, it is found that it will take him 22.5 hours to walk the 45 dogs.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
He walks 3 dogs in 1 hour and 30 minutes, we means that the time in hours it takes for him to walk a dog is:
t = 1.5/3 = 0.5 hours.
Hence the time it will take him to walk 45 dogs is given by:
45 x 0.5 = 22.5 hours.

Answer:
2 = x- coordinate
3 = y coordinate
Step-by-step explanation:
REMEMBER: In an ordered pair, the x-coordinate always comes first.
Answer:
<h2>
f(4) = -10
</h2><h2>
</h2><h2>
x = 0
</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph attached,
For x = 4,
Value of the function will be,
f(4) = y value at x = 4
f(4) = -10
Similarly, for y = g(x) = 2,
x value of the function will be,
x = 0
For which g(0) = 2
Therefore, for x = 0 value of the function will be 2.
g(0) = 2
Assume the number of trucks is x
number of cars is 5x
5x+x=30
6x=30
x=5
