I'll get you started. Let x and y be the two numbers. we have: x + y = 74 (sum is 74) x = 4y - 6 (the number x is six less than 4 times y) Now that you have the equations use an algebraic techniques to eliminate one variable thereby solving for the other. If you need more help add a comment to your question.

Using elimination (add or sub) find the solution to the following system of equations 5x+ 3y=9 2x -3y=5

Levart [38]

5x+3y=9
2x-3y=5

5x+2x=9+5
7x=14
14/7x= 2
x=2

sub it in so you get y

5(2)+3y=9
10+3y=9 (-10 to get rid of it)
3y=-1
3y/-1= - 1/3

x= 2 y= - 1/3

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

60 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

A full rotation is 360 degrees.

So 1/6 is 360 * 1/6 = 60 degrees.
