 <span>Neighbor: 2/5(x) </span>
<span>Remainder = x - 2/5(x) = 3/5(x) </span>
<span>Cousin = 4/9 * 3/5(x) = 4/15(x) </span>

<span>x - 2/5(x) - 4/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>x - 6/15(x) - 4/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>x - 10/15(x) = 15 </span>
<span>(15x - 10x) = 225 </span>
<span>5x = 225 </span>
<span>x = 225/5 = 45 </span>

<span>Therefore, he made 45 rolls</span>

Identify a possible first step using the elimination method to solve the system and then find the solution to the system.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:x = 1

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of simultaneous equations is expressed as

3x - 5y = - 2 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

2x + y = 3 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

The first step is to decide on which variable to eliminate. Let us eliminate x. Then we would multiply both rows by numbers which would make the coefficients of x to be equal in both rows.

Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

6x - 10y = - 4

6x + 3y = 9

Subtracting, it becomes

- 13y = - 13

y = - 13/- 13 = 1

The next step is to substitute y = 1 into any of the equations to determine x.

Substituting y = 1 into equation 2, it becomes

2x + 1 = 3

2x = 3 - 1 = 2

x = 2/2 = 1
