Substitute y = 2x - 15 to the second equation:
4x + 3(2x - 15) = -5 use distributive property
4x + (3)(2x) + (3)(-15) = -5
4x + 6x - 45 = -5 add 45 to both sides
10x = 40 divide both sides by 10
x = 4
Substitute the value of x to the equation y = 2x - 15:
y = 2(4) - 15 = 8 - 15 = -7
<h3>Answer: (4, -7)</h3>
Answer:
The constant of proportionality is 3 because for every 1 female bear there are 3 cubs and vice versa.
Answer:
36, 49, 64
Step-by-step explanation:
6 squared, 7 squared, 8 squared makes 149
<span>replace Y = 5x - 13
into
4x + 3y = 18
</span>
4x + 3 (5x - 13) = 18
4x + 15 - 39 = 18
4x -24 = 18
4x = 18 +24
4x = 42
x = 42/4
x = 10.5
Y = 5(10.5) - 13
= 52.5 - 13
= 39.5
answer: x = 10.5 and y = 39.5
