\text{The solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>

8x + 5y = 18 ------- eqn 1

6x + y = -2 -------- eqn 2

Multiply eqn 2 by -5

-30x -5y = 10 ----- eqn 3

Add eqn 1 and eqn 3 so that y terms gets eliminated

8x + 5y = 18

-30x -5y = 10

( + ) --------------

-22x = 28

Divide both sides by -22

x = \frac{28}{-22}\\\\x = \frac{-14}{11}

Substitute the x value in eqn 1

8(\frac{-14}{11}) + 5y = 18\\\\\frac{-112}{11} + 5y = 18\\\\5y = 18 + \frac{112}{11}\\\\5y = \frac{310}{11}\\\\y = \frac{62}{11}

\text{Thus the solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}

Two integers a and b have a product of 24.what is the least possible sum of a and b
OverLord2011 [107]
A x b = 24

Possible values of a and b are:
1 x 24 = 24
2 x 12 = 24
3 x 8 =24
4 x 6 = 24

The possible sums of a and b are:
1 + 24 = 25
2 + 12 = 14
3 + 8 = 11
4 + 6 = 10

Therefore, the least possible sum of a and b is 10.
