<h3>The solution is (x, y) = (3, -24)</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>
-3x - y = 15 -------- eqn 1
y = -8x ------ eqn 2
We have to find solution of (x, y)
We can solve by substitution method
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>
-3x - (-8x) = 15
-3x + 8x = 15
5x = 15
Divide both sides by 5
<h3>x = 3</h3>
Substitute x = 3 in eqn 2
y = -8(3)
<h3>y = -24</h3>
Thus solution is (x, y) = (3, -24)
So find the difference between 1995 and 2022 to make it easier
2022-1995=27
so the rephrased question is
when hazel was x years old, she was 25 years older than son gary who was y old at that time (equation is x is 25 more than y or x=25+y)
in 27 years, (this means x+27 and y+27) hazel's age will be 150% of gary's age (x+27= 150% of y+27)
percent means parts out of 100 so 150%=150/100=15/10=1.5
'of' in math means multiply so
the equations are
x=25+y
x+27=1.5(y+27)
subsitute 25+y for x in second euation
25+y+27=1.5(y+27)
add like terms
y+52=1.5(y+27)
I personally dislike decimals to multiply both sides by 2 to make 2 0.5's or 1 (you are technically supposed to distribute or divide both sides by 1.5) so
2y+104=3(y+27)
distribute
2y+104=3y+81
subtract 2y from both sides
104=y+81
subtract 81 from both sides
23=y
subsitute
x=25+y
x=25+23
x=48
Hazel was 48 and Gary was 23 in the year of 1995

Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
In an equation our aim is to find the value of what we are looking for as well as keeping the equation balanced. For example if we took away 1.4 only from one side then the equation would change so it's an important rule to keep in mind when solving equations, that you need to keep both sides of the equation the same.
0.7x - 1.4 = -3.5
→ First multiply everything by 10 to make everything into a whole number
7x - 14 = -35
→ Plus 14 to both sides to isolate 7x
7x = -21
→ Divide both sides by 7 to isolate 7
x = -3
