Answer: X = —5 and Y = —2

Step-by-step explanation: What we have is a pair of simultaneous equations;

3X + Y = —17 —————-(1)

6X — 6Y = —18 ————(2)

We shall use the substitution method as instructed. Looking at equation (1),

We shall make Y the subject of the equation, hence

Y = —17 —3X

We shall now substitute for the value of Y into equation (2)

6X — 6Y = —18

6X — 6(—17 —3X) = —18

6X + 102 + 18X = —18

By collecting like terms we now have

24X = —18 —102

(Note that when a positive value crosses to the other side of the equation it becomes negative and vice versa)

24X = —120

Divide both sides of the equation by 24

X = —5

Having calculated the value of X as —5, we can now calculate Y as follows

From equation (1)

3X + Y = —17

3(—5) + Y = —17

—15 + Y = —17

Add 15 to both sides of the equation

—15 + 15 + Y = —17 + 15

Y = —2

Therefore, X = —5 and Y = —2

The area of a triangle is 45cm2 and the height is 9 cm. What is the length of the base?
Bess [88]
Formula
A=bh divides by 2

SUBSTITUTE
45=b9 divided by 2

MULTIPLY/DIVIDE

You can either divide by 2 or multiply by 1/2 (gets the same answer)
9 x 1/2 = 4.5

DIVIDE
45 divides by 4.5 = 10

CHECK

A= 10 x 9 divided by 2 or multiply by 1/2 (same answer) = 45

Thus, the answer is 10.
I hope this helped you understand the process!

ZanzabumX [31]
The whole number that comes before 105 is 104.

However, it is not the only whole number that comes before 105.

Whole numbers are identified as natural number and zero (0). Meaning the whole number starts with 0 then followed by 1,2,3,4.... so on. Whole numbers are positive numbers without remainders nor fractions.

Whole number that come before 105 range from 0 to 104.

Natural numbers are also called counting numbers; They start with 1. Zero is not a natural number because it cannot be counted.

Integers are numbers which can be positive or negative and it includes zero.
