Solve the linear equations 4x-3y=16 and x+y=-3

4x - 3y = 16

x + y = -3

Subtract y from both sides of the 2nd equation.

x = -3 - y

Now that we have a value of x, we can plug it into the first equation to solve for y.

4(-3 - y) - 3y = 16

Distributive property.

-12 - 4y - 3y = 16

Combine like terms.

-12 - 7y = 16

Add 12 to both sides.

-7y = 28

Divide both sides by -7.

y = -4

The value of y is -4, and now we can solve for the value of x.

Plug this value into either equation.

x + (-4) = -3

Add 4 to both sides.

x = 1

The value of x is 1.


<h3>x = 1</h3><h3>y = -4</h3>

What is the value of 5
Reil [10]

Answer:

The first one is by using your mind. If you know that factorial of any non negative integer denoted by n!

defined as

n!=n(n−1)(n−2)⋯3⋅2⋅1

then 5!=5∗4∗3∗2∗1. You can calculate it in your mind which will give you 5!=120.

That's it.

The next method is using your calculator. In my calculator Casio fx-991es, I pressed 5 and then shift+x−1

button and I got 120. Similarly, you can use Google to calculate it like I did and got this.

How do I do this problem
Lena [83]

First you multiply 3 times x and 3 times 2 

4(3(x + 2) -1) =50

and get

4( 3x +6 -1) =50

then you add 6 plus -1

4 ( 3x +5) = 50

then multiply 4 times 3x and 4 times 5

12x +20 = 50 and subtract 20 from both sides

       -20    -20

and you will get

12x = 30

divided both sides by 12

12x/12 = 30/12

then you find the ones that are the same amount in decimals but are smaller

and that's your answer: x= 5/2


hope you get it!!!
