Answer:

x = -2 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

4x + 5y = 7    -----(1)

3x – 2y = –12   ----(2)

<u>To find the value of x and y</u>

eq(1) * 3 ⇒

12x + 15y = 21   ----(3)

eq(2) * 4 ⇒

12x - 8y = -48  ---(4)

eq(3) - eq(4) ⇒

12x + 15y = 21   ----(3)

<u>12x - 8y = -48 </u> ---(4)

 0 + 23y = 69

y = 69/23 = 3

Substitute the value of y in eq(1)

4x + 5y = 7    ----(1)

4x + 5*3 = 7

4x = 7 - 15 = -8

x = -8/4 = -2

Therefore x = -2 and y = 3

jeka94
Answer: In this conditional statement, all of the results are F.

There is no relationship between dogs having five legs and cats having three tails. Even if you took the converse and said "If cats have three tails, then dogs have five legs", there is no truth in that statement.
