<h2>Greetings!</h2><h3>To solve this, you can multiply one of the equations by a number so that one of the unknown values are the same as the other equation. Or simply multiply both numbers before the x together:</h3>

(-2x + 5y = -15 ) x 5 =

-10x + 25y = -75

(5x+2y=-6) x -2 =

-10x -4y = 12

<h3>Now, you can add or minus the two equations, but seeing as both values before the x are negative we can add the two equations to cancel out the x:</h3>

-10x -4y = 12 +

-10x + 25y = -75 =

0x + 21y = -63

21y =  -63

<h3>Simply divide -63 by 21 to find y:</h3>

-63 ÷ 21 = -3 , so the value of y = -3


<h3>Now you can substitute this value into one of the equations:</h3>

5x + 2y = -6

5x + 2(-3) = -6

5x = -6 - (-6)

5x = -6 + 6

5x = 0

x = 0

<h3>So that means x = 0 and y = -3</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

When the sum of a number and 3 is subtracted from 10 the result is 5 solve om algebraic equation?
german

Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebraic Equation is an equation where alphabets are used to represent numbers.

Solving the above question,

Let the number = y

Therefore,

Sum of the number = y + 3

If it's subtracted from 10 it becomes

10 - ( y + 3 )

The result : 10 - y - 3 = 5

- y = 5 - 10 + 3

- y = -2

Therefore,

y = 2

SEWING Jeanne has 3 3/5 yards of fabric.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

2 pairs

Step-by-step explanation:

If we convert 3 3/5 into an informal fraction, it would be 18/5 (3*5+3 for the numerator) and 1 4/5 would be 9/5 (1*5+4 for the numerator). 18/5 divided by 9/5 is the same as 18/5 * 5/9 (the reciprocal of 9/5) which equals 2. Therefore she can make 2 pairs of pants.
