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

Which of the following are solution to the inequality below -4w - 2 &lt; -38
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

w > 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the inequality by using inverse operations.

-4w - 2 < -38

-4w < -36

w > 9

Like solving equations, inequalities should be solved using inverse operations. However, unlike equations, when you divide or multiply by a negative the sign changes.

simplify as much as you can

x^2(x-3)+(x-3)

combine terms

(x^2)(x-3)
