Answer:

x=5

y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The substitution method is considered easier because of its simplification.

2x-3y=7 (1)

x+2y=7 (2)

considering equation (2),

x = 7 - 2y (3)

using the value of "x" in (1)

2 (7-2y) - 3y=7

14 - 4y- 3y = 7

14 - 7y = 7

7y = 14 - 7

7y = 7

y = 1 (4)

substituting this value of "y" in (3)

x = 7- 2(1)

x = 5

On a farm the number of cows and the number of sheep are in the tatio 6:5 the number of sheep and the number of pigs are in the

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

There are 70 sheep in the farm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let c represents the cows, s represents the sheep and p represents the pigs.

The number of cows and the number of sheep are in the ratio 6:5.

$\dfrac{c}{s} =\dfrac{6}{5}$

$c =\dfrac{6s}{5}$

The number of sheep and the number of pigs are in the ratio 2:1.

$\dfrac{s}{p} =\dfrac{2}{1}$

$p =\dfrac{s}{2}$

The total number is 189.

$c+s+p=189$

Substitute the value of c and p in above.

$\dfrac{6s}{5}+s+\dfrac{s}{2}=189$

$\dfrac{12s+10s+5s}{10}=189$

$27s=1890$

$s=70$

Hence, there are 70 sheep in the farm.

In kite ABCD, AB = BC and CD = DA. AB = (3x + 4), BC = x + 8, CD = y + 7, and DA = 2y + 5, find the perimeter of the kite

lana [24]

3x + 4 = x+ 8 > 3x - x = 2x > 2x + 4 = 8 > 8 - 4 = 4 > 2x / 2 crosses out > 4 / 2 = 2 > x=2
2y + 5 = y + 7 > 2y - y = y > y+ 5 = 7 > 7-5= 2 > y=2

the perimeter of the kite is 4
