Hence missing value in the solution to the equation is:(-5,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

$x-5y= -15$

and we need to complete the missing value in the solution to the equation

(-5,?)

Since the solution is in the form of ordered pair, so first value represent value of x and second value represents value of y i.e (x,y)

So, x= -5, Now finding y:

Putting value of x in given equation:

$x-5y= -15\\-5-5y= -15\\-5y=-15+5\\-5y=-10\\y=-10/-5\\y=2$

So, value of y is 2

Hence missing value in the solution to the equation is:(-5,2)

Eddi Din [679]

Total number of computers sold last week from Best Bargain = 340
Percentage of laptops sold last week from Best Bargain = 75%
These are the information's that we can find given in the question. Based on these information's the answer to the question can be easily found.
Number of laptops sold from Best Bargain last week = 340 * (75/100)
   = 340 * (3/4)
      = 85 * 3
   = 255
So out of the total of 340 computers sold from Best Bargain last week, 255 were laptops. I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
