Answer:

x=−1 and y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 3,and multiply the second equation by 1.

3(x−2y=−19)

1(−3x+5y=48)

Becomes:

3x−6y=−57

−3x+5y=48

Add these equations to eliminate x:

−y=−9

Then solve−y=−9for y:

−y=−9

(divide both sides by -1)

y=9

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation:

x−2y=−19

Substitute 9 for y in x−2y=−19:

x−(2)(9)=−19

x−18=−19(Simplify both sides of the equation)

x−18+18=−19+18(Add 18 to both sides)

x=−1

Answer:

x= -1

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this system of equation

let

x - 2y = -19.....................................equation 1

-3x + 5y = 48 .................................. equation2

from equation 1

x - 2y = -19.....................................equation 1

x = -19 + 2y................................... equation 3

substitute the value of x into equation 2

-3x + 5y = 48 .................................. equation2

-3(-19 + 2y) + 5y = 48

57 - 6y + 5y = 48

combine the like terms

-6y + 5y = 48 -57

-y = - 9

divide both side by -

y = 9

put y= 9 into equation 3

x = -19 + 2y................................... equation 3

x = -19 + 2(9)

x = -19 + 18

x = -1

therefore the value of x and y is -1 and 9 respectively

The angles of a triangle are 2x, 3x, and 4x degrees. Find the value of x.
dimulka [17.4K]
<span>We have to find the value of x if the measures of the angles of a triangle are: 2 x, 3 x and 4 x. We know that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. A + B + C = 180. Here we have: A = 2 x, B = 3 x and C = 4 x; 2 x + 3 x + 4 x = 180; 9 x = 180; x = 180 : 9. Answer: x = 20 degrees.</span>

The digit in the tens place of a two digit number is three times that in the units place. If the digits are reversed the new num
S_A_V [24]
We could do it with algebra.  But we can also do it the long way, which is
shorter than the algebraic way.

The digit in the tens place is 3 times the digit in the units place.
So the number MUST be
31, or
62, or
93 .
It can't be anything else.

Now here they are again, with the reverse of each one:

31 . . . 13      The new number is  18 less.
62 . . . 26      The new number is  36 less.
93 . . . 39      The new number is  54 less.

Obviously, the original number is 62.
