16. Find the values of x and y. (2y + 5) (5r - 17) (3r - 11)

1 answer:

3 0

(5x - 17) + (3x - 11)= 180 [ Linear Pair ]
= 8x - 28= 180
= 8x= 208
= x = 208/8
= x = 26

3x-11
= 3*26 - 11
=67

Now, we have:
(2y+5)+90+(3x-11)=180 [Linear Pair]

Substituting (3x-11),
(2y+5) + 90 + 67= 180
= (2y+5)+157= 180
= 2y + 162= 180
= 2y= 18
=y = 18/2
=y= 9

Therefore, x= 26, and y= 9

3 mangoes and 2 oranges have a mass of 200gm and 4 mangoes and 4 oranges have a mass of 300gm. Find out the mass of each fruit.

mestny [16]

Start by defining your variables
let x be the mass of a single mango in gm
let y be the mass of a single orange in gm

now, write the question as a system of equations

3 mango and 2 orange have a mass of 200 gm
3x +2y = 200
4 mango and 4 orange have a mass of 300 gm
4x +4y = 300

now you have a system of equations
3x+2y =200
4x+4y =300

solve for x and y
