The solution of the equation is x= 3 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

-3x-4y = -17 and

-x-3y = -9

The system of equation can be rewritten as

3x+4y = 17 ------eq 1 and

x+3y = 9 ------ eq 2

To solve for x and y

Multiplying eq 2 by 3 we get,

3x + 9y = 27

or, 3x = 27-9y

Putting this value of x into eq 1 we get,

27-9y +4y = 17

or, -5y = 17-27

or, -5y = -10

or, y = 2

Now put y=2 in eq 2 we get,

x = 9 - 3(2)

= 3

Hence the solution is x = 3 and y = 2

The normal yearly growth of a plant is 60 inches. The normal growth was ten inches more than twice the amount of last year. What
Usimov [2.4K]

The growth of the plant last year was 25 inches if the normal growth was ten inches more than twice the amount of last year.

<h3>What is linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

The normal yearly growth of a plant is 60 inches.

Let's suppose the growth of the plant last year was x

The normal growth was ten inches more than twice the amount of last year.

From the above statement:

10 + 2x = 60

2x = 50

x = 25 inches

Thus, the growth of the plant last year was 25 inches if the normal growth was ten inches more than twice the amount of last year.

450 / 10 = 45
There were B. 45 students on each bus.
