Answer:
The value of x is <u>1</u><u>0</u><u>.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
By question,
-4(x - 5) = 60
or,-4x + 20 = 60
or,-4x = 60 -20
or, -4x = 40
or, x =40/-4
Hence,x=10
X + y = 1.....multiply by -1
4x + y = -23
---------------
-x - y = -1 (result of multiplying by -1)
4x + y = -23
---------------add
3x = - 24
x = -24/3
x = -8 <====
x + y = 1
-8 + y = 1
y = 1 + 8
y = 9 <====
