2x + 3y = -1.....(5)
5x + 8y = 0.....(-2)
-----------------------
10x + 15y = -5
-10x - 16y = 0
-----------------------add
-y = -5
y = 5 <=====this is where Janet messed up

2x + 3y = -1
2x + 3(5) = -1
2x + 15 = -1
2x = -1-15
2x = -16
x = -16/2
x = - 8

solution is : (-8,5)

maw [93]

Answer:

80 persons haf fish and 152 persons had chicken

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let the number of persons that had fish be x and chicken be y

so

12x+9y=2544------------------1

x+y= 232------------------------2

from 2

x= 232-y

substitute the value of x in 1

12(232-y)+9y=2544

2784-12y+9y=2544

2784-3y=2544

3y= 2784-2544

3y=240

y= 240/3

y=80

put y= 80 in 2

x+80= 232

x= 232-80

x=152

Hence 80 persons haf fish and 152 persons had chicken
