Step-by-step explanation:
16+10+4
26+4
30
30÷(2+2)
30÷4
7 1/2
<span>A) 5x + 7y = 3
B) 2x + 3y = 1
Multiplying Equation B by -2.5
</span><span>B) -5x -7.5y = -2.5 Then adding this to Equation A)
A) 5x + 7y = 3</span>
-.5y = .5
y = -1
Since
<span>2x + 3y = 1 then
2x -3 = 1
then x = 2
</span>
What is the number down their?
The two consecutive integers can be represented by x and x+1.
x+(x+1)=71
Combine like terms
2x+1=71
Subtract 1 from both sides
2x=70
Divide both sides by 2
x=35
Final answer: 35, 36
