Answer:

(- 7, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 3y = - 23 → (1)

y = 4 → (2)

Substitute y = 4 directly into (1_

5x + 3(4) = - 23, that is

5x + 12 = - 23 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

5x = - 35 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = - 7

Solution is (- 7, 4 )

Answer: $301$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, The LCM of numbers given numbers $2$ , $3$ , $4$ and $5$ is $60$ .

Thus, the number that gives 1 as reminder and is the multiple of 7 is $60 n + 1$

Where n is any positive integer,

Since, For $n = 5$ ,

The number is, $60\times 5 + 1 = 300 + 1 = 301$

Which is divisible by $7$ .

Thus, the required number is 301.

Note : For n = 1, 2 3 and 4, numbers are 61, 121, 181 and 241

But they are not the multiple of 7.
