If 5x - 3y = 1 and x = 2y - 4, then x • y = ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Inessa05 [86]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 2,  y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

i) It is given that 5x - 3y =1

ii) It is also given that x = 2y - 4

iii) we can substitute the value of x from ii) in the equation in i) and we will get 5(2y - 4) - 3y = 1   ⇒ 10y - 20 -3y =  1   ⇒  7y = 21  ∴ y = 3

iv) substituting the value of y obtained in ii) we get x = (2 × 3) - 4 = 6 - 4 = 2.

v) Therefore x = 2.

Angle 1 and Angle 2 are complementary angles. Angle 1 is 5x degrees. Angle 2 is 50 degrees. Find the value of x. Type ONLY the n
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angles sum to 90°

sum the 2 angles and equate to 90

5x + 50 = 90 ( subtract 50 from both sides )

5x = 40 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 8
