Answer:
y = and x =
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve simultaneous equations, you need to have the number in front of both x's or y's the same. (signs doesn't matter)
To get -x to -10x we simply need to multiply the first equation by 10:
-x * 10 = -10x
-9y * 10 = -90y
16 * 10 = 160
-10x - 90y = 160
Now we can add the two equations:
-10x + 10x = 0
-90y + 20y = -70y
160 + 20 = 180
-70y = 180
70y = -180
7y = -18
y =
Now plug into the second equation:
10x + 20() = 20
10x - = 20
Move the over to the other side, making it a positive:
10x = 20 +
10x =
Divide both sides by 10:
x =
So y = and x =

Answer:
12 year old is the youngest sibling
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The ages of three siblings are all consecutive integers.
The sum of sibling´s age is 39.
Now, finding the age of youngest sibling.
Lets assume the age of youngest sibling be "x"
As given, The ages of three siblings are all consecutive integers.
∴ Age of 2nd sibling will be
Age of 3rd sibling will be
next, forming an equation for the sum of sibling´s age.
⇒
Opening the parenthesis
⇒
⇒
Subtracting both side by 3
⇒
⇒
Dividing both side by 3
⇒
∴ x= 12
Subtituting the value of x to find the age of other sibling
∴Youngest sibling age= 12 years
2nd sibling age= 13 years
3rd sibling age= 14 years
Hence, The youngest sibling is 12 years old.
