Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 12y = -34

-6x - 12y = 36

-x = 2

x = -2

5(-2) + 12y = -34

-10 + 12y = -34

12y = -24

y = -2

Answer:

x = -2 y= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+12y= -34

2x+ 4y = -12

2x= -4y -12

x= -2y -6

plug back in

5(-2y -6) +12y = -34

-10y -30 +12y = -34

2y = -4

y= -2

2x+4y=-12

4y= -2x -12

y= -.5x -3

plug back in

5x+ 12(-.5x-3)=-34

5x -6x -36 = -34

-x = 2

x= -2

5 1/2 +1 3/10x=13 what does x equal

Advocard [28]

Answer:

$x=5\frac{10}{13}$

Explanation:

Given the equation

$5\frac{1}{2}+1\frac{3}{10}x=13$

Step 1: Change all the mixed fraction to improper fractions

$\implies\frac{11}{2}+\frac{13x}{10}=13$

Step 2: Find the lowest common multiple of the denominators (2 and 10)

The lowest common multiple = 10

Step 3: Multiply all through by 10.

$\begin{gathered} \implies\frac{11}{2}\times10+\frac{13x\times10}{10}=13\times10 \\ =55+13x=130 \end{gathered}$

Step 4: Apply the subtraction law of equality. (Subtract 55)

$\begin{gathered} 55-55+13x=130-55 \\ 13x=75 \end{gathered}$

Step 5: Apply the division law of equality. (Divide by 13)

$\begin{gathered} \frac{13x}{13}=\frac{75}{13} \\ x=5\frac{10}{13} \end{gathered}$
