I'm assuming that you want to solve for both variables. In this scenario, the subtraction method will likely be your best choice.

Let's start off by multiplying all numbers in the second equation by -2:

4x + 5y = 3
-4x -6y = -2
_________
(Add these two equations)
0x -y = 1
y = -1

Now that we know the value for 'y,' we can input it into one of the equations to solve for x:

4x + 5y = 3
4x + 5(-1) = 3
4x - 5 = 3
4x = 8
x = 2

x = 2, y = -1

Let me know if you'd like me to explain anything I did here.

Week2- Medication A: 80 milligrams    Medication B: 48 milligrams

week 3- Medication A:?              Medication B: 6

They seem to be reducing it by 42, so 48-42=6 (medication B)

So therefore, 80-42=32. would be for medication A

In a certain town there were 332 robberies last year. This year the number of robberies has gone down 14%. How many robberies we
Reptile [31]

Answer:  300

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of robberies last year was                          =  332

Percentage of reduction in the subsequent year    = 14%

Therefore,to know the decline amount, we find 14% of 332

                                                                                    = 14/100 x 332

                                                                                    = 46.48

Now to find out the number of robberies cases recorded this year, it will be

                                                                                   = 332 - 46.48

                                                                                   = 285.52

                                                                                  ≅ 300

The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 5. If nine is subtracted from the number, the digits will be reversed. Find the A
Greeley [361]

Let <em>a</em> be the number in the 10s place and <em>b</em> in the 1s place. Then the original two-digit number is 10<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>.

The sum of the digits is 5:

<em>a</em> + <em>b</em> = 5

Subtract 9 from the original number, and we get the same number with its digits reversed:

(10<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) - 9 = 10<em>b</em> + <em>a</em>

Simplifying this equation gives

9<em>a</em> - 9<em>b</em> = 9

or

<em>a</em> - <em>b</em> = 1

Add this to the first equation above:

(<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) + (<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) = 5 + 1

2<em>a</em> = 6

<em>a</em> = 3

Then

3 - <em>b</em> = 1

<em>b</em> = 2

So the original number is 32. Just to check, we have 3 + 2 = 5, and 32 - 9 = 23.
