Answer:

x=1,y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+3y=21....(1)

-12x+y=-7.....(2)

From (2) make y the subject of formula

y=-7+12x...(3)

Substitute (3) into (1)

6x+3(-7+12x)=21

6x-21+36x=21

Collect like terms

6x+36x=21+21

42x=42

Divide both sides by 42

x=1

Substitute the value of x into (3)

y=-7+12(1)

y=-7+12

y=5

Therefore x=1,y=5

Answer:

(x,y)=(1,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+3y=21/*2

-12x+y=-7

12x+6y=42 (1)

-12x+y=-7 (2)

(1)+(2): 7y=35

-12x+y=-7

y=35/7

-12x+y=-7

y=5

-12x+5=-7

y=5

-12x=-7-5

y=5

-12x=-12

y=5

x=-12/(-12

y=5

x=1

(x,y)=(1,5)

heather has divided $6300 between two invesments, one paying 9%, the other paying 4%. If the return on her investment is $372, h
Ganezh [65]
Assuming that the two investments are  X & Y
X + Y = 6300
X = 6300 - Y                                       (1)

9/100X + 4/100 Y = 372                       (2)
replacing X from (1) into (2)
9/100(6300-Y) + 4/100 Y = 372
567 - 9/100Y +4/100Y = 372
(-9+4)/100Y = 372 - 567
5/100Y = -195
Y = 100*195/5 = 3900
From (1) we can get X
X = 6300 - 3900 = 2400

I hope this is helpful
