Answer:

x+y=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

y-x=4

x=3y

y-3y=4

x=3y

-2y=4

x=3y

y=4/(-2)

x=3y

y=-2

x=3*(-2)

x=-6, y=-2 then

x+y=-6-2=-8

Convert 11.42424242 to a rational expression in the form of a/b , where b ≠ 0.

11.424242
isolate the repeating part
11+0.424242

focus on the repeating part
0.42424242
how many places till it repeats again?
2
let's say it is x
x=0.42424242
multiply by 100
100x=42.424242

subtract them
100x-x=42.42424242-0.42424242
the infinite repeats cancel and we get
99x=42
divide by 99
$x=\frac{42}{99}$

so
$11.\overline{42}=11 \space\ \frac{42}{99}$
