Answer:

(x,y) =( -9,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

This pair of linear equations may be solved simultaneously by using the elimination method. This will involve ensuring that the coefficient of one of the unknown variables is the same in both equations.

It may be solved by substitution in that one of the variable is made the subject of the equation and the result is substituted into the second equation. Using the elimination method, multiply the second equation by 4, the result is

28x - 8y = -268

Add to the first equation given

5x + 28x + 8y - 8y = -29 -268

33x = -297

x = -297/33

= -9

substitute the value of x into  the first equation

5(-9) + 8y = -29

8y = -29 +45

8y = 16

y = 16/8

= 2

First, multiply the second equation by 4 so that 8y can cancel out. Now you have
5x+8y=-29
and
28x-8y=-268
Add these equations to get 
33x=-297
Divide both sides by 33, and you have
x=-9
Now, simply solve for y by plugging it into an equation, and you have
y=2
The final answer is (-9,2)!

How many three-digit positive integers have three different digits and at least one prime digit?
Blababa [14]

The number of three-digit positive integers that have three different digits and at least one prime digit are 7960.

The only two components in prime numbers are 1 and the number itself.

Any whole number greater than one is a prime number.

It has exactly two factors—1 and the actual number.

There is just one 2-digit even prime number.

Every pair of prime numbers is always a co-prime.

The product of prime numbers can be used to represent any number.

Three-digit positive integers that have three different digits and at least one prime digit = 3!*4!*10*9 = 7960

Answer: (12,0)


Steps:

First, put the equation in slope-intercept form.

y=mx+b

1.5x + 4.5y =18

Subtract 1.5x from both sides.

4.5y =-1.5x +18

Divide both sides by 4.5 to isolate y.

y = -1/3x + 4


Then replace y with 0 because the point for the x-intercept is exactly on the x-axis so the y=0.

0 = -1/3x + 4

Subtract 4 from both sides

-4 = -1/3x

Divide both sides by -1/3 to isolate the x

12=x
