The problem seems confusing is it supposed to say y=?
Answer:
x=0, y=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
The system is
(1) 5x+3y=-15
(2) -8x-2y=10
Let's solve it by elimination. In order to do it, you have to multiply the equations by suitable numbers in such a way that when you add the 2 equations, one of the unknowns is eliminated
Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 3
(1) 10x+6y=-30
(2) -24x-6y=30
Add the two equations
10x-24x+6y-6y=-30+30 ----> -14x=0---->x=0
Now replace this value in any equation, for example in (1)
6y=-30 ----> y=-30/6----> y=-5
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are finding a percent of something, you need to move the decimal over to the left twice in the percentage. Like this:
20% = .20
Then, just multiply that by the number you are trying to find the percent of.
.20 x 120 = 24
