I think the answer is false but I’m not for sure
0.4, 41%, 3/7
Explain: 0.4 is 40%, which is less than 41%. 3/7 is about 43%
Answer:
x = 75 and y = -72
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
1/5 x + 1/8 y = 1 ------(1)
1/2 x − 1/3 y = 1 -------(2)
<u>To find the solutions of the system of equations</u>
Step 1: eq(1) * 5 ⇒
x + 5/8y = 5 ----(3)
Step 2: eq(2) * 2 ⇒
x - 2/3y = 2 -----(4)
Step 3: eq(3) - eq(4) ⇒
x + 5/8y = 5 ----(3)
<u>x - 2/3y = 2 -</u>----(4)
0 +(5/8 - 2/3)y = 3
-1/24 y = 3
y = -24*3 = -72
Step 4: Substitute the value of y in eq(1)
1/5 x + 1/8 y = 1 ------(1)
1/5 x + 1/8 (-72) = 1 ------(1)
1/5 x - 24 = 1
1/5 x = 25
x = 5*25 = 75
Therefor x = 75 and y = -72
Answer:
x= 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use Distributive property to solve this.
4(x+2)=10
4x+8=10
-8 -8
4x= 2
4x/4= 2/4
x= 1/2
Hope this is right!
