Answer:
(x, y) = (77/240, -3/10)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to write the equations in standard form.
Multiplying the first equation by 21 gives ...
21y = 24x -14
Multiplying the second equation by 8 gives ...
24x +9y = 5
Then the system of equations in standard form is ...
Subtracting the first from the second, we get ...
(24x +9y) -(24x -21y) = (5) -(14)
30y = -9
y = -9/30 = -3/10
Substituting this into the second equation, we have ...
24x +9(-3/10) = 5
24x = 7.7 . . . . . . . add 27/10
x = 7.7/24 = 77/240
The solution is (x, y) = (77/240, -3/10).

Answer:the percentage decrease is 36.67%
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial amount of sugar in his diet is 15 spoons in a day. Currently, the amount of sugar in his diet is 9 1/2 spoons in a day. Converting to decimal, it becomes 9.5 spoon in a day. The amount by which he reduced his sugar intake is 15 - 9.5 = 5.5 spoons.
Percentage decrease would be expressed as
Amount by which the intake decreased/ initial intake × 100
It becomes
5.5/15 × 100 = 36.67%

To solve x:
1. Substract 19 in both sides of the equation:

2. Multiply both sides of the ewuation by 10/9:

<h2>Then, the value of x is 60 (x=60)</h2>
