Answer:
x=82
y=18
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=100
8+x=5y
Original scores :
45,65,70,80,85,100
IQR = 85 - 65 = 20
new scores :
65,70,80,85
IQR = (80 + 85)/2 - (65 + 70)/2 = 82.5 - 67.5 = 15
The value of (27/8)-2/3 is..
Exact Form: 65/24
Decimal Form: 2.7083...…
Mixed Number Form: 2 17/24
Hey there!
Let's create a systems of equations using x and y.
4x+3y=15
3x-2y=7
We need to solve this using elimination. First, we need to multiply the first equation by 2/3 so that we can cancel out the y's when combining our equations.
2 2/3x+2y=10
3x-2y=7
Now we combine the equations...
5 2/3x=17
x=3
Now we can plug our x into the first equation to find y.
12+3y=15
y=1
Our numbers are 3 and 1.
I hope this helps!
