Answer:

x =  -6; y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make Ax + By = C into two equations.

3x + 5y = -3

(1) 5y = -3x - 3

    y = -3/5x - 3/5

(2) 3x = -5y - 3

     x = -5/3y - 1

2. Insert (1) and (2) into -3x + 2y = 24.

(1) -3x + 2(-3/5x - 3/5) = 24

   -3x - 6/5x - 6/5 = 24

   -21/5x = 126/5

   x = 126/5 * -5/21

   x = -6

(2) -3(-5/3y - 1) + 2y = 24

    5y + 3 + 2y = 24

    7y = 21

    y = 3

How do I answer this question?​
Novay_Z [31]

Due to the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem, we know that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle equals 180 degrees, therefore,

180 = m<1 + m<2 + m<3

180 - m<3 = m<1 + m<2

But, we also know that m<4 + m<3 = 180 degrees.

180 = m<3 + m<4

180 - m<3 = m<4

Both m<4 and m<1 + m<2  equals 180 - m<3

m<4 = m<1 + m<2

If 60 marks is 40%, how much is full marks (Show your working out)?
Vitek1552 [10]
' 40% ' means 0.4 .

You said that                           60          = 0.4 x Full

Divide each side by 0.4 :       60 / 0.4  =   1  x Full

                                                       Full  =  150 .
