Answer:

x = -2, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - y = -7

4x + 2y = – 14

Multiply the first equation by 2

2(5x - y) = 2*-7

10x -2y = -14

Add this to the second equation to eliminate y

10x -2y = -14

4x + 2y = – 14

---------------------------

14x = -28

Divide by 14

14x/14 = -28/14

x = -2

Now find y

4x+2y = -14

4*-2 +2y = -14

-8+2y = -14

Add 8 to each side

2y = -6

Divide by 2

2y/2 = -6/2

y = -3

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ \ x=-2, \ y=-3 \  \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

<u>I assume that you want to solve this system of two equations</u>

   (1) 5x - y  = -7

   (2) 4x + 2y = -14

We will multiply (1) by 2 and add to (2) so that we can eliminate the terms in y

2*(1)+(2) gives

   10x - 2y + 4x + 2y = -7*2 -14 = -14 - 14 = -28

   <=>

   14x = - 28 we can divide by 14 both parts

   x = -28/14 = -2

and then we replace x in (1)

   5*(-2)-y=-7

   -10-y=-7 add 7

   -10-y+7=0

   -3-y=0 add y

   -3 = y

which is equivalent to y = -3

lawyer [7]

Answer:

The greatest common factor is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime factorisation of 10, 30 and 45 is,

10 = 2 × 5

30 = 2 × 3 × 5

45 = 3 × 3 × 5

The prime factor '5' is common in the factorisation of 10, 30 and 45

So, the greatest common factor of 10, 30 and 45 is 5.

On each trial of an experiment, a subject is presented with a constant soft noise, which is interrupted at some unpredictable ti
Julli [10]

Answer:

25th percentile = 202

80th percentile = 285

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the values in increasing order

164

171

175

202

217

226

231

241

257

261

269

273

285

296

311

N = total number of variables = 15.

25th percentile = [(N + 1)/4]th variable = (15 + 1)/4 = 4th variable.

So, the 25th percentile = 4th variable = 202.

80th percentile = 0.8(N + 1) th variable = 0.8 × (15 + 1) = 12.8th variable = 13th variable = 285
